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.

“Modular”

Fucking unbundling. Pay extra for gaming or something.

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Pay extra to be allowed to save files locally.

Pay extra for "offline access" to your files.

Various ad-tiers.

Among others.

What the fuck...

Turn off the TPM module in your BIOS. All updates stop. And yeah, consider alternatives.

Thanks ms for making my future easy, see you never

Pass

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well I'll not buy buy it.

Then again I've never directly bought a microslop product in all my decades of using windows.
I bought one pre-built pc in about 1995 that had it on, so I indirectly paid for that.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

I bought a copy of Visual Basic 3 in 1995 for $50 and that's it for MS products for me.

[–] LeFantome@programming.dev 11 points 3 months ago

Is it April 1 already?

[–] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well at least they meant it when they said windows 10 will be the last os they make,.

Why is this sub spreading AI slop?

The entire article is based on rumors, clickbait and hallucinations.

I bet it's going to be like this:

Even though people obtain equipment with NPU, they'll opt out from paid options which at least partially will contain AI modules. The NPU will then be only partially in use and that AI processing resource will be used by Microslop for it's own benefit.

[–] bitwolf@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm curious on what they mean by "fully modular". Coming from Linux I think I have a different definition of "fully modular" than they do.

Still not upgrading to it anytime soon...

I have a feeling, that they'll try to pull a "Windows 95 uses Internet Explorer as a core component" with AI, making it impossible to disable.

Anyways, I might move to Manjaro on my desktop too.

[–] Suavevillain@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

All this sounds terrible. I don't even want to upgrade to Windows 11 for work on my other drive.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 months ago (11 children)

Fuck does fully modular mean?

The "fully modular" bit might imply we could gut everything we dont want out of it, that might actually be an improvement over 11 if true...

[–] starblursd@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 months ago

Also rumored to require a CPU with a npu 😂
