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.

The No-AI list - A list of projects that pledged not to use AI or are disrupting it (noai.starlightnet.work)

Generative AI, namely LLMs, image and video diffusion models and especially the companies that make them plague the tech industry.

We got tired, so we decided to take things into our own hands and curate a list of projects that aren't complicit in the devaluing of labor by these companies.

Unlike projects that came before us, we want to highlight software that values the labor that goes into creating and not call out projects that use LLMs or Image/Video Diffusion models.

Okay this list seems... Quite shit if I'm going to be honest.

They list there for example Oracle's Virtualbox software, with evidence pointing to a PR that was rejected because it was extremely shit quality, full AI generated code, description etc. also the developer hasn't signed the contract with Oracle that allows Oracle to use the committed code in proprietary projects

Some projects here will be marked like such: ✱, ✱ or ✱

Oh wow, that must be some of the worst colour coding I've ever seen.

And the blind too

[–] remon@ani.social 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, I have that. Still, this is one of the worst cases I've ever encountered in the wild.

[–] Gonzako@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Aren't there browser extensionss that help with that?

[–] remon@ani.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe, it really doesn't happen often enough for me to require that kind of assistance.

Will be checking out Vim Classic. Drew DeVault's blog post about the motivations behind it resonated

i pray that Signal doesn't do any ai nonsense

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 2 weeks ago

I mean they have Google blobs so they probably are and you'll never know.

Signal is already fucked. Always has been.
