"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.

If you feel like there's a need to exclude yourself from the machine you helped build/create/market, then perhaps you shouldn't have been involved in that machine.
If not flock then someone else would've done it, and there's no way to know if someone else is already doing it, or has already done it, but those are problems for a different day. I do know that if I mixed up a 2 and 7 whether intentional, by understandable mistake, or by negligence, I'd be in trouble. Arguments have been made in the past that bodycam footage generally should not be shared because it captures people at their worst, having the worst day of their lives when police respond to a disaster. Flock's using the "eh, good enough" approach to find an acceptible limit for how many people they cause to have their worst day ever.
