"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 think it should be "alignment" with the design specifications. A hammer is also designed to be useful in certain ways. A wrench aligned to the things it should grip and turn. I mean it could be designed to be bigger or smaller, have different kinds of jaws... In the same sense AI models are being aligned to do what the designers want them to do. Other ways to use the word alignment don't make a lot of sense IMO.
