Fuck AI

"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.

The question was about the instrumental goal and yours is about the terminal* goal.

That’s a very specific distinction to draw from “AI TO DO WHAT?” There is nothing to indicate either one.

Seems like you were just looking to be pedantic.

No, sorry, I didn't mean you are wrong. I mean that the comic answers it as an instrumental goal and as the author wrote the conversation, the question was intended to be about the instrumental goal.

But your comment wasn't wrong. In fact, it added to the comic. Your comment highlight the difference between their instrumental and terminal goal and the implications of it.

I am thankful for your comment and I appreciate you for it. My intentions were to add to yours and not to critic it. Thanks
