"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.

This is like saying it's bad to acknowledge white privilege because it divides the working class.
You're being a class reductionist. It's not bad to use language that normal people can understand. Especially when doing it in the context of a criticism of capitalism and class conflict. Which is what I did. It's why you quoted "boomers" and nothing else. You're not responding to the content of my comment. You're pointing to a label that the working class uses AND understands and then telling me not to use that label.
I'd agree with you if a generation argument was being used to mask class conflict. But I did not do that at all. Not in the slightest.
Reread my comment and reply to some actual substance if you want. Otherwise all you're doing is policing a word.
