"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.

I see a ton of articles posted here about how AI sucks, but this is a big, dedicated community. I feel like there's more to do than just read the news. What can we do as members of Fuck AI to protest against this bullshit? What are you guys already doing individually?

I'm not doing anything about "AI" because "AI" doesn't exist.

As far as the many, disparate technologies that are called "AI", I judge them each on their own merits like any technology. But it's important to be aware that capitalism ultimately develops and uses all technology for violent control. There's nothing special about "AI" in this respect.

Lastly I resist any technology that's actively oppressive whether people call it "AI" or not. It's difficult to talk about precise tactics because every technology is different with its own applications. For example, a company like Palantir should be stopped from infiltrating and exploiting our data on a mass scale. Similarly we should try to stop the automation of war and genocide. Etc. However these problems are nothing new and people have been trying to develop tactics for a long time.
