"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.

To be fair, if you listen to bad advise from chat-bots you have probably already lost. I know there are vulnerable people were that's easier said than done, but even before Chat-GPT, the internet already was a completely toxic place, where other people, that never saw or knew you, tell you to just kill yourself.
So yes, there are a lot of real issues with LLMs, but people following clearly idiotic advice from a bot (that's also clearly marked as such), is a non-issue in my book.
Maybe we should punish corporations for claiming their chat-bots can give good advice or are "phd-level intelligence" rather than blaming individuals falling for their bs and suffering then?
No, lets make it a personal responsibility issue, because that's worked so great the plastics industry.
