"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 not just bloated, it has a bunch of semi abandoned features and relatively simple bugs that they just don't care about fixing. Which is super weird. And I LIKE maximalism and features.
And as absolutely true as this post is, I also feel like this was a little corporate BM from valve. Which is concerning, given their position in the market; I don't want valve to turn into a machine that punches down. That's super toxic culture.
Just to clarify, because I have seen a lot of people not know this. This is part of a much bigger update, and has been in the public beta branch since the 9th of september. Steam aren't "punching down" or doing "corporate BM" in this case.
