"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.

Police departments around the world are warning against the dangers of a trending social media prank that uses artificial intelligence to simulate a home invasion.

Known online as the “homeless man prank,” the perpetrator convinces the recipient that an unhoused stranger has entered their home by texting them artificially generated images of a person experiencing homelessness sitting on their couch, lying on their bed and searching through their kitchen cupboards.

The trend has spread across multiple platforms, including TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat.

Sending someone a pic of a stranger in their house is one of those ideas that may seem funny at first, but just gets worse the more you think about it. If anyone does this to you, they’re either a kid who doesn’t know better, or a complete moron.

I think it could still be funny if you picked a specific, wildly unlikely person. It's one thing to have some random desperate person sleeping on your couch, quite another to have Taylor Swift or Luke Skywalker doing it.

Christopher Walken is the one celebrity most likely to actually be asleep on your couch. So don’t use him.

Or Nick Nolte.
