"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 "free market" doesn't exist and has never existed.
A perfectly free market? No, it doesn't and never will exist. A mostly-free market which, with appropriate nudging, emulates 90% of the behaviour of the market that appears in an economic textbook? That does exist or can exist and we can manipulate it to our benefit
There's no way you're referring to the stock market? Where in the world is this free market actually practiced?
