"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.

Ah yes, something traditional programming could never achieve, automatically sorting data into buckets. It's easy to forget how we went from clay tablets to ChatGPT with nothing in-between.
Not only that, 8.5 million data points? Sorted into 6 categories? Any LLMbecile is going to get 25% of them wrong anyway, and will likely add a seventh or eighth category on top of that. Or forget one.
Are you retarded? This isn't going to an LLM. There is more to "AI" than chatGPT.
This whole sub is a monument to throwing the baby out with the bathwater because you don't know shit about the domain area. Maybe it should be renamed to fuck generative AI specifically LLMs with trained explainability, RAG, and guardrails hosted by tech companies.
Maybe you should have been specific given that currently common parlance has "AI" as LLMbeciles. Specified the type of AI.
But then you couldn't get that flagging ego hard without fapping, could you?
Why do all the worst shits seem to hang out at sh.itjust.works? /rhetorical
I'd be mad too if I got caught on a technicality when my identity is based around hating something I don't really understand. I see LLM and "llmbecile" is pretty much all you have, and being that shallow is a tough life. Maybe YOU shouldn't have jumped to conclusions.
I feel for you, bro.
Doesn't sound quite as catchy
You've got a point there. It would lose a fair bit of curb appeal.
Ok go ahead. I'll give you some labeled example data, and you can use traditional programming to sort these assorted text strings into the "supports premise", "rejects premise", and "neither supports nor rejects" buckets. Once traditional programming does that without BERT or some other classifier, I'll put in a rec for the full data and you can come work at my company running a data science division.
Let's go. There's more to AI/ML than chatgpt.
sorry I ain't working for someone that spends their time calling people retarded in a tiny anti-AI sub because they don't draw a bright enough line between different flavors of AI for your personal tastes. Thanks for the offer though, but I'll have to politely refuse to prove to you the fact that programmatic sentiment analysis existed long before people used AI for it, and it worked just fine.
Well that's good. I was worried I was going to have to tell you that job offers on Lemmy aren't serious, but you cleared that bar with a herculean bound! I'll take your refuse to prove as "can't meaningfully prove" without loss of generality and go about my day. It's been real.
