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.

As data centers are shut down by angry mobs and AI surveillance cameras are ripped from their poles, the world’s tech billionaires and CEOs are waking up to the reality that the masses are, broadly speaking, not on board with their plan to automate the world with AI.

When they get really scared, they'll lash out harshly in an attempt to scare us back into compliance. Rather than back down, that's our cue to finish it, once and for all. None of this namby-pamby dragging it out for years. Decisive action is called for at that point, a lá Francais.

Good. Remember, people having worker's rights and livable wages and a clean environment is a compromise. Eating the rich is what happens when you keep trying to make that compromise go away due to greed.

They need to understand that they keep their fortunes and their lives, at the pleasure of the people.

We're also not on board with their plans to keep evading taxes, or their plans to keep running secret private islands.

Every third Futurism headline because it gets clicks: "The AI industry is literally shitting its pants and collapsing; the enemy is simultaneously strong and weak. Sam Altman is actually having a panic attack right now."

It feels like this and some low-quality pop science reporting is all this content mill exists to do at this point.

this news comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable

The angry mob thing is so real. Treating AI as some nebulous thing that exists in cyberspace somehow devoid of anything real isn't how anything works. Data centers can burn. Sugar can be poured in your concrete, your shit can be smashed and if people get angry enough they will not stop at smashing only your shit.

These assholes aren't scared enough because they are still trying to build data centers all over the goddamn place, but it's just getting started, keep up the good work.
