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.

Such is the hypocrisy of your average AI bro. It’s all fun and games watching the tech plunder the arts and put people out of jobs — until it threatens to replace you, apparently.

I want to frame this quote.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 102 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

Honestly, I actually believe that AI could replace thoughtless, dudebro podcasts.

Go fuck yourself, bro jogan.

Spews bullshit without checking it for accuracy? ✅

People seem almost offended if others fall for it? ✅

Can initiate a vicious cycle of reaffirming biases? ✅

The most annoying people you know are super into it? ✅

If AI can shut that dude up, I may need to rethink my opposition to it.

Damn impressive how they can make an entire article about 3 secs of an interview.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Welcome to the future of AI. /s

The fact that it was only three seconds of it is actually very telling information, as well.

That was cognitive dissonance in vivo.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 38 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Uh, Notebook LM could do this about 2 years ago.

A large potato could generate a Joe Rogan podcast. I just think they're neat.

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

That's horseshit. You can do it with a medium potato.

[–] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 4 weeks ago

Potato (optional)

I used to like rogan when I was younger but now I can't watch ten minutes of his podcast because of his awful takes on any and everything.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

I can't say I ever really cared for him that much, but I certainly didn't start to hate him until I saw that clip of him screaming at that primatologist. That was eye-opening.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

To be fair, he used to be pretty good about inviting experts and asking them enlightening questions out of a place of honest and interested ignorance pre 2016, but then the whole "Intellectual Dark Web" shit took off and then he went pro Trump.

Katee Sackhoff is a great person.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago

She did an interview with the original Starbuck actor, Dirk Benedict, at a coffee shop. She called it Starbuck on Starbuck at Starbucks.

I can't imagine how utterly inane and pointless an AI podcast would be.

[–] CptOblivius@lemmy.world 52 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Have you heard a Joe Rogan podcast?

[–] cheesybuddha@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

No, I stopped taking him seriously when he did Fear Factor. Though he was great on News Radio

It’s gotten so out of his hand that his some of his fans ...

I don't know what's more annoying: that this glaring misprint is found right at the beginning of the article, or that neither M$ Word, nor Libreoffice see it as a grammar issue.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 20 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh hey! The first human whose job I'm fine with AI taking!

[–] BoycottTwitter@lemmy.zip 13 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (4 children)

Monkey's paw: the AI is controlled by Russia and spreads even more disinformation than Joe Rogan does.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 11 points 4 weeks ago

it is why the right wing politicians are obsessed with AI, its easier to spread it, and harder discern from it from the unitiated.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 6 points 4 weeks ago

I'm frankly not particularly convinced this isn't already the case.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

That's just Elon and Grok.

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

How can you spread more disinformation? Any more and it would create a black hole from the density.

[–] bluegreenpurplepink@lemmy.world 19 points 4 weeks ago

Will AI Joe Rogan be as much of a sausage party as regular Joe Rogan?

[–] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Man, of inexplicable fame, with strange opinions is temporarily caught out. Hold the press!

Maybe we should stop looking at what futurism is writing about because it seems to me that they are just writing tabloid stories for people who don't like so-called AI. I think this is the third time I clicked through on a link and am left with regret to have added to their page views.

[–] jaredwhite@humansare.social 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I am extremely appreciative of Futurism's journalism. I can't think of too many other outlets that are doing what they do.

Was watching some GTA role players who were playing a mayor and they had podcasts that they distilled from in game police reports, govt laws etc over a year ago and it was too good. I could not tell, not that I am a good AI detector. Would do a cast every 3-4 days.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

There are GTA roleplayers?!

Damn that's not something I expected to be introduced to. Very different from me and friends creating costumes and larping in the woods. I might need a rocking chair and a porch if anyone has spares they want to donate. Do my knees hurt?

[–] eletes@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 weeks ago

It's a roleplaying server, so it's multiplayer but someone might act as a cop or taxi driver

[–] phaedrus@piefed.world 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

There are also Red Dead Redemption 2 roleplayers! It's a surprisingly large community, and tons of mods have been made specifically for this purpose.

Even Thomas Middleditch does some:

Starbuck doing wheelies on her motorcycle around this potato

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

Now? I thought that's been done for a while now. eg

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

That guess is Katie sackoff

[–] trublu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago

If anyone knows something about robots posing as humans, it's frakking Starbuck.
