Fuck AI

"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.

We’re rolling out AI code at scale, and we’re not seeing an increase in incidents or key metrics going down. Instead, we are shipping more and faster.

Of course you're seeing nothing but good reports and increasing numbers. That's what bubbles are. Nothing in reality is as good as they're making the AI market look. It's all wash trading. No one is actually using these products so there won't be much complaints or bug reports will there? Yeah it must look really good from the inside looking out.

The reality is that real people hate your shitty broken AI products and want nothing to do with them.

I don’t want AI crammed into all the nooks and crannies either, but companies are using AI to advance productivity in very real ways, not just writing software. Just data analysis alone where you throw a bunch of sales data at an AI and have it spit out some less-intuitive trends that it’d take a team of people to suss out is an actual cost savings that can make-line-go-up.

I do agree that it’s a bubble for sure but just like the housing bubble, there is still a lot of underlying value that will stick around after the burst.

I get the AI hate around art. But it's quite a naïve (and frankly shows just how little you understand about AI) view to talk about broken AI products because I use AI to write some unit tests for me.

I won't go into details but pretty sure you use our product every day without reflecting over whether the code was written with the help of AI or not.

Art is one thing and I agree. But you make it sound like you'd hate mathematicians who decided to use calculators, or hated programmers who used the first programming languages. Real programs are built with machine code!!
