"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.

It's kind of incredible to me that the dude that started this project would be so quick to allow it to become slopped.
I'm forced to use LLMs at work myself, but even I have projects that I'm unwilling to let them touch, and I'm talking about a personal text editor for fuck's sake, not something I've spent my whole life building and attached my name to.
So many people have become shameless garbage.
This exactly! I don't understand how one would let an LLM touch their passion projects. I don't mind someone quickly slopping together a little python script for something, but I would never let it touch my babies. It'd be like buying a self-assembling lego set. Sure the end result is the same, but is the end result why someone buys a lego set?
