"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'm not worried about AI turning into Skynet. That's like item # 1,576,549 on my list of reasons I hate AI.
It's literally everything else about AI:
Israel has already been using AI to generate kill lists for their bombs and sniper drones.

The problem isn't that skynet turns malicious. The problem is that AI is dumb and evil people have already given it the helm.
first and formoest, it seems to be intended goal, massive layoffs using AI as an convenient excuse without actually firing them for other reasons.
