"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.

hey jensen, if ai can do a n y t h i n g, then why can't it turn profit?
... Not that I like that guy, but he's running one of the most profitable businesses ever...
This is a gold rush and he's selling the shovels.
Yes, but he IS turning profit. LOADS of profit.
That's what I said.
he's raking money now, but his continued success depends on his customers turning profit from ai, and buying his chips forever, and what cannot continue has to stop. vc money can't paper over this financial burn pit indefinitely
He owns the company producing skynet's physical brains.. everything you're seeing in the world is positioning for civil unrest due to this technology. They're even starting to say the inside parts out loud.
The reason so much $$$ is thrown at all this is it "reduces the employee cost burden" indefinitely.
I'm not purporting it'll be good or decent replacement, but enshittification is a word for a reason. quality be damned, this will be forced on us.

all of these brainrot as a service chatbots are subsidized by vc at 10x rate give it or take, it's not economical to use them now even for things like call center and definitely won't be after vc money dries out. massive influx of cash into capex by the same just papers over recession that you out there already have and graduate unemployment is one of its facets that isn't masked this way
~~Yes, but he IS turning profit. LOADS of profit~~.
Wrong reply
We need to wait a few months to achieve AGI, which will tell us how to use it to generate infinite profit.
