"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.

I hope this is partly because some companies are becoming wise to the fact that when their employees use AI they are providing the AI with privileged information that can be leaked (which we've seen from law firms recently).
But honestly I think this is down to people working at these companies actively running up against the friction of what AI can't do or doesn't do well.
my company has an AI ban because of information confidentiality.
it is also generally useless for the work we do.
Are they hiring? My last job fired me because I refused to use the useless LLMs they spent millions on.
Nope. Hiring freeze thanks to Trump's funding cuts. Plus very few people leave because the job is easy and the benefits are very good.
