"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.

See, now I'm the opposite with Linkin Park. As a kid/teen I loved them. Hybrid Theory was the one CD I had that I knew would appeal to almost everyone who was riding in the same car as me.

As I got older, I started understanding the lyrics more and more. There's so much pain embedded in that album. I listen to the lyrics and I hear somebody who's been severely hurt, who's writing and singing out their emotions, which have no other place to go.

Then Chester Bennington offed himself, and now the pain jumps out at me with the same intensity as the light from an on-coming headlight. I haven't been able to listen to Linkin Park since 2017 for that reason. All I hear now is a suffering man that can't be helped, and it tears me apart.

Maybe some day things will change again. Perhaps I'm still in mourning. A time may come where I listen to Linkin Park and feel more of a nostalgic joy, or a sense of respect due to knowing what hell Chester endured as he created something incredible. I'm just not there yet.
