"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.

Oh good. If you resort to hyperbole to prove your argument you’ve already lost.
Okay, since its obviously hyperbole that it isnt possible, its a potential outcome so lets return to my original question (deemed a massive assumption on my part by you):
So copypasting your question does what…? If you can’t be bothered to think through my answer and think of a different question, then go re-read the answer I already gave you.
Okay, its called a hypothetical, which you ignored. I therefore ignored your bad faith attempt at diverting the discussion at hand. Hypothetically, what happens when it is energy efficient? Its not impossible. I am only saying, sure do whatever you gotta do to regulate ai now, but it will eventually get there, and then what?
It is, in fact, impossible. lmfao.
Then, hyperbolically, and hypothetically, the entire electronic and computing world is massively changed and not just AI. Because such a change wouldn’t be limited to AI’s use. I wish you wouldn’t keep playing with the conditions of the argument myopically in an attempt to be right. If you don’t like someone criticizing hyperbole and hypotheticals, don’t use them.
Don't bother discussing, they will delete their comments once they lose the argument
Thanks for the heads up. Guess I’m done here.
