"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.

Yeah I have all the LLMs through work, so every now and then I'm like wtf let's give it a shot, I need to do a super fuzzy search over a large semantic area and why what do I have here...
Number one, it saps any little bit of joy I might have taken out of work, and two, "speaking" to it makes me feel insane. Like I'm talking to the world's most polite gaslighter. And it's so confidently wrong all the time.
I'm fine just loading up my squishy human brain with context and then executing, but increasingly its getting harder to parse online docs (including internal!), articles, and other resources, because they've been slopped up by a process that doesn't actually understand anything it's generating.
