"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.

they want you to believe it's sentient.
it's not.
that's a trained response, clearly, because a machine can't typo.
That's also why every single AI interface mimics "chat"windows and uses realistic human voices.
Its just like any other scam: filter everyone out except for the most vulnerable potential victims and then latch on like a leach and bleed them for all their worth.
It not "mimicing chat", it literally is a chat. You throw words at model, it tries to come up with answer. This back and forth texting need to be represented in UI somehow, hence = chat.
No need to overthink and come up with conspiracy theory of something trivial. There a plenty of real reasons to hate "ai" companies.
"Chat" implies there's someone talking to you but there's no one there. I'd say that makes it mimicry.
It's just copying (plagiarizing) the text it was trained on, which did have typos and people apologizing for making typos.
I'm fairly certain many humans aren't sentient either.
