Wikipedia is one of the last genuine places on the Internet, and these rat bastards are trying to contaminate that, too

"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 guess the point is for people to not read the filler.
I think of the text that's too small to read on a computer in the background. It's nice that it's slightly more real looking than a copy/paste screen.
Not even close to worth destroying the environment over, but it's a neat use case to me
Lorem ipsum has been used in typesetting since the 60s. If it’s not meant to be read, it doesn’t matter if it’s lorem ipsum text.
Not trying to dogpile you, I just think even things that seem ‘useful’ for LLMs almost always have preexisting solutions that are decades old.
Fair enough, I'm trying pretty hard to devil's advocate the "it has zero use" commentary. I hate the AI hype and LLMs getting shoved down our throats. I try a little to imagine a world where it's somewhat helpful, cuz that type of tech would've been cool if it wasn't a dystopian nightmare socially.
I mean long and short of it is Fuck AI and especially the people pushing it
