I am so happy in my Arch Linux, no AI, no "this pc", almost everything under my control. Windows used to be great until the enshitification started to spread like plague everywhere. I still have a decades old bank intel laptop (19+ years old, literally acquired from a bank and they were about to throw it and many others away but I managed to take one with me, it is huge and makes my chest look small) with a working windows 7 I sometimes use to relieve nostalgia, not going to change anything on it plus it became a relic.
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.

What are the actual chances he reads that?
Microsoft, you make an operating system, ms office, and some apps. I give you some money, you do your job, that's it. Transaction ended.

Theres no downside for MS
Any image or video? Can it generate a video of what I did with your mom last night?
I still cannot manually sort grouped app… but garbage AI can install malware on my pc on its own
And I grew up in the era were companies gave a shit about providing decent products, or at least convincingly pretended to do so.
Modern companies would take the consumer's money and spit on their face. They're no longer interested in no exchange, they want it all and how dare you not agree?
Ten years ago I was using AI to identify cats in mass batches of trail cam photos, and it's still useful for that. Nothing changes.
First as tragedy, second as farce.
Koolaid comes in many flavors
My friend installed a local LLM copilot to his computer and asked it if he had any extra files that could be deleted. It just doesn't seem smart to query a LLM when people have hard coded apps that will do the same. I have a space saving program that searches app directories and my files and lists unwanted files that I van delete to save space. Why are we remaking the wheel with half of the bloat LLMS is trash

The security and privacy are reversed. It's additional privacy and potential security concerns.
