"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.

People hating on this overly agreeable stance from LLMs, but in reality the executives pouring money into this stuff want "yes men" from their subordinates, including their AI subordinates.
It is absolutely a feature.
I do suspect that is part of the appeal for many people. They talk about productivity, they talk about automating tasks so they can do other things, but really, it's a subordinate that never pushes back against you. And some people have always wanted that, especially when they're an average person who would never get to have that otherwise.
