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.

dang I wish someone could invent a decentralized social media platform where engagement isn't rewarded over everything else and if one instance becomes infested with bots the others could defederate from it and it has 10x the moderator-to-user ratio of existing social media dang
I'm not sure but I think you are talking about PornHub.
yeah but what if instead we just try corporate social media again but this time we punish kids more?
