"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.

I was shocked when I couldn't switch back to Google Assistant today. I had tried out gemini for months a while back, and it does not control my phone well. I don't need advanced AI to remind me to move the laundry in two hours or remind me of my mother's birthday each year. Or to queue up a specific song on spotify. Also, advanced AI is cumbersome at those things. It's a real bummer.

I'm assuming this is a way to artificially inflate user numbers to shareholders.

This sucks.

What a cool project. That's on the way to being what I need, but it still can't do reminders. Honestly, reminders are the only thing I want because of absentmindedness. I think I'll just schedule send text messages to myself going forward. Not as simple as saying it out loud, but sending a text is pretty muscle memory at this point.
