"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.

You're telling me that a bunch of sociopathic nerds have trouble with consent? Color me shocked.
Gonna seem real silly when the AI extinction bubble pops and all the survivors have to live locally on GPUs like they should have always been. Big fucking waste of everything.
Only works with things that have proven efficacy. Like the car replacing the horse or electricity replacing various manual labour tasks, like doing laundry.
Point 1 isn't that ludacris if we could outlaw the training of new models. The effort of training them is the largest part.
GPT4ALL can run models easily, privately and locally on your computer - because the training is done, it's past tense. All you're doing when you ask it something locally/offline is remixing it.
How would you make better models then? Like force everyone to team up so there's "only" one datacenter? Waiting for techbto catch up?
I'm genuinely curious as I don't think any of the big companies are going to stop just like that.
