"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.

No, it's equivalent to a loaf of bread that can be magically copied for no cost infinitely. But someone lays claim on that particular loaf on the basis of "intellectual property".
Someone who once studied how this magic loaf of bread works made a magic cake, so we can all eat cake instead. Obviously the owner of the loaf doesn't like that and sues, shouting "he's a thief!". Millions of morons start to pick up the chant "Thief! Thief! He stole the fire of the Gods! Lock him up!".
Now the obvious question becomes: When do analogies spiral out of control?
