"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

That's a really weird reason to think it's fake. There are plenty of reasons, not least that it's on the internet at all, but this describes a very normal human thought error. I understand it's not the type of mistake any individual person would necessarily make, but if you don't understand that some people definitely would, I think you could use more insight into the variety of personalities and thought processes which exist.
I was suspicious it was fake already because it's written like an attention-seeking LinkedIn post. Then the followup reads like a "oops, I didn't mean to post that picture...but since you all liked it..." post everyone sees through on Myspace. Who writes like that to their friends?
