"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.

Coco melon, tablet generation, COVID interrupted, influencer culture, AI highschool...
....and I still feel like this generation will turn out fine. This generation seems highly socially connected. They can find out pretty much anything they want, and there are hobbies galore.
Each generation shits on the previous generation, and eats up media claiming they're a broken generation.... But things don't have to be that way.
Ah yes. People are developing schitzoid psychosis from chatbot addiction but somehow this generation will turn out "just fine" seriously 🙄?? You think people are going to be okay from this? This is different than anything anyone has gone through before.
Yawn. Sure right, reefeer madness will take over society because 1950s society said so. The hippies will kill everyone because the media said so. Mass psychosis from violent video games. Wow, everyone's addicted to porn guess it's the end of the world again!
....and now "AI Psychosis" has destroyed a whole population!
A small segment of society prone to skitzoid addiction has alway existed, every generation, and every generation as a whole has always pulled through just fine. Pretending it's the end of the world (like you're doing) has also ALWAYS happened.
The truth is: We've seen aspects of all of this throughout time. Hell, Socrates believed written plays rather than memorization would ruin people. You're playing a very old role.
