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.

Could this whole thing be some admixture of truth, bullshit, PR and politics? 99.999%. Still, let's not pretend it's not an emerging issue.
