"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.

That's it.

I thought you might all like to tell them to fuck off, as I already have. It's 'opt-in' at the moment but I'm damn close to deleting my entire site anyway. I will do if they make it 'opt-out' instead.

It's not ragebait. I use a wordpress.com site, and WordPress have added an 'Improve with AI' option to the new post sidebar as I see it; these are facts! I don't see that I need to go around and verify that its been added to every variant of WordPress site before I say that it's there. It is there.

Sure, but there's a difference between the software and some hosting provider hosting this software, even if it's on wordpress.com. But I don't hold it against you, that domain is deliberately confusing.

And Matt tried to claim WP Engine was confusing.. what a herb.

You are not understanding the difference between the commercial website wordpress.com and the open source project called WordPress that it runs on.

WordPress.com and WordPress are not the same thing. WordPress.com has added AI on top of the WordPress open source project which does not include AI.

I am not confused. The distinction you are making is irrelevant to me. Yet another thing I use every day has had AI shoehorned into it and I'm annoyed about that. Telling me that it's only the host, not the software, does not suddenly make me okay with it.
