"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.

What a valuable contribution from the co-founder and CEO of "Cooper AI"... on a platform for business-type show-offs who have nothing better to do than reinforce each other’s outrageous incompetence...

So this is the scope of "Cooper AI’s" operations:

Executives Who Use Cooper Make Better-Informed Decisions. Cooper uses natural language to generate insights and deliver the high-impact opportunities your executive team needs right now.

I think it’s pretty obvious from this sentence alone that this is nothing more than another front-end that forwards all requests to the actual cloud LLM providers.

It’s truly absurd that there are people who see any added value in this.

"Generate insights" had me rolling my eyes. If she thinks that's what they're doing, she deserves everything that's coming to her.

It's just a buzz phrase these days

LLMs suck at buzz phrases as well.

No need to do that for this. They can easily use an open model for this work.

And prompting is like script kiddie shit. That’s the go to when people don’t understand how to train these models.

Hey now, they added some value like a few lines of prompt to the claude api call.

It's ok, she made a mistake in the post so it's all human written. Everything Gaddam thing is just telling us how human she is.
