"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.
You can help the mod team by making your reports detailed.
Effective reports:
- "The third image is a well-known anti-semitic trope"
- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

Microsoft is just one player in this battle. Data collection is power now. If you know everything about a person including all their dark secrets then you can control the course of humanity. Elon Musk wants to take over all telecoms and store data on every person in the United States and beyond. His software is embedded within the military and there is no understanding of how far this data collection goes.
He used brain washed young people which practically amounted to kids to get access to the records of every American and we have no idea what happened there. No investigation or anything to find out what happened. Then, the insinuations about knowing how the 2024 election would turn out. No investigation into what systems he had in place that allowed him to make the claim that he already knew the results.
His data center holds a lot of secrets.
He's going to push hard into cellular and he could buy Comcast if he wanted. If you connect the dots of what he's doing, it is about a vertically integrated monopoly of all communication and data.
The worst part is that he hates anyone who is against him and lacks any empathy towards those who think opposite of him. Sometimes I wonder if data centers put us in the crosshairs of dangerous weapons. Anyone out of the algorithm can be targeted.
The very presence of them is threatening.
