Fuck AI

"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.

So long story short someone I know is losing their mind over ai and keeps mailing me bits of things they are asking a chatbot about. (End of world, ai solving the economic and ecological problems of the world etc its batshit. ) They asked me what this "code" is. To me, its bullshit and meaningless.

this isn't even code, it's gibberish metadata that's not connected to anything, with a timestamp in the future to freak out your friend and keep them addicted to gen-ai chatbots 🤷

i hope you can get through to your friend & get them away from their gen-ai chatbot use, it sounds really awful for their mental health ❤️‍🩹

Yeah its pretty disgusting how it does that on purpose to fearmonger.

Yeah, this is the only time they ever used a chatbot they are ultra anti ai but decided to use it once to ask if it was destroying the world etc. I was like OK...
