"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.

Chris is a dear friend of mine of 25+ years (Jesus, time flies). I know Lemmy has a deep hatred of CEOs but Chris is a genuine good guy. He left his CEO job in order to fight the unchecked expansion of AI. The conversations he alluded to in this op-ed include one I participated in. In fact, the bulk of the article is a rework of our conversation. Not every tech executive has a hard on for AI.
Thank you for posting, the insight and having personal reference point. I almost glazed past this article and came to see the replies.
This is super relevant and TIL, the whole not slowing down because China will surpass or catch up is a massive red herring, if this is true.
Fuck all the oligarchs and techbros. None of this is good news for humanity.
