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.

There's clearly an AI bubble. Let's just pop this shit and get it over with. The sooner the market corrects, the sooner it can start recovering.

Ah, but don't forget about the second and third bubble.

We've had one yes. What about second bubble?

These things come in cycles.

six months after the bubble "pops" someone will come up with an AI that can grind minecraft for you or whatever, and that'll spark a whole new wave of interest in "robust independant agents" until companies realise that's also not worth 500 trillion

Here’s hoping that because they have crammed this version of ai into everything it could possibly go into, and even a bunch of things it can’t, the hype wagon for the next one is a honey wagon and everyone rightly stays away from it..

This looks exactly like the graph of Coronavirus infections in my country.

I don't think he knows about second bubble.
