"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.

However, as staffers at major video game developer Electronic Arts — which is behind some of the biggest franchises in the industry, from “The Sims” to “Battlefield” — told Business Insider, their employer’s attempts to shoehorn AI into everyday tasks are seriously backfiring.

Some staffers told the outlet that the AI tools they’re encouraged to use produce flawed code, among other hallucinations that need to be addressed.

In other words, the tech may be creating more work, not less — which doesn’t bode well for an industry that’s already infamous for its crunch culture and high turnover rate.

It's almost as if we're rediscovering outsourcing all over again. Every time a company I have worked for outsourced code we 100% of the time had to either ditch to project all together or rewrite the code ourselves, thus negating all the money "saved" by outsourcing. I see the exact same thing happening with AI now.

And experts like me getting told to fear for their job. Yeah well guess what? You just pissed me off and have to pay more and I'm more required and requested than ever.
