"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.

Anyone else experience this?

You run into a niche or weird issue. So you google "how to x", "y not working on z" or "Error code: 123"; The 1st, 2nd, 3rd page are infected, probably 90% AI slop. Don't have any luck even with the one blog post that was probably written by a human.

Now I have to go to YouTube. Look for a tutorial, 1st, 2nd, 3rd video all AI. AI voice, AI avatar, bot comments like "😍😍😍".

Finally I reach a real video from a year or two ago that actually solved my issue. Took 4 hours when normally I could find it in 1 hour tops.

The Google search AI has been giving me like the obvious solutions. Like the three things I tried tne minutes ago before I googled it. I already checked the menu and couldn't find the setting or I wouldn't be trying to get help online. And then the next seven search results are videos that don't quite match my search. And the finally somewhere I find some promising leads on some message board that would have been the top result 6 years ago.
