"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.

Yep. The "fine OR imprisonment" part means fines for the rich, and imprisonment for the poor.

The filthy rich only go to prison for stealing from other filthy rich assholes.

Fines would be nice if they were tied to a percentage of someone's net worth. Too bad something like that would never be accepted in the US though.
