"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.

I dabble in writing, and I twitch when my Mac suggests text. It's not AI per se, it's just auto complete, but I refuse to use it. I don't want to disable the feature but I won't use it if I'm working prose — even if it knows exactly what I'm going to say next. I want to say every word is 100% mine.

There's an argument against using a MacBook vs a typewriter. I've actually written on a typewriter. Three of them. I love typewriters. But I do enjoy typing on the MacBook. Kurt Vonnegut wrote on index cards. I'm not trying to throw it that far back.
