"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.

Dell's CES 2026 chat was the most pleasingly un-AI briefing I've had in maybe 5 years

Because companies don't serve customers. They serve shareholders.

AI is the hotness right now and every boards of directors wants to know what the company plans to do with AI.

Not just shareholders. We've had several employees asking how is our company leveraging AI, or why he haven't implemented AI into our products. We don't sell anything even closely related to tech. Hell, our product doesn't even use electricity. It's insane

On interviews? Why do you think they do that?

Are they afraid your company will get “left behind,” or something?

On townhall meetings, or whenever we have open forums to discuss things with executive management

Yeah people underestimate how widely the AI mind virus has spread. Some people are addicted to it, they can't live without it. It's all they can talk about, or think about.
