"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.

GenAI can kinda make sense for quick and dirty shitposts, but the audience for anything more artistic than that is functionally zero.
It was more shitposty when it was worse. In its early days, I saw genAI algorithms as artpieces themselves, even if their output wasn't really art themselves. Then it started to become usable, and I got informed about the environmental impacts...
This is a great point. The tools themselves are fascinating and impressive even if what they make is mostly garbage.
