"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.

*Costing billions, not worth billions. There is a difference.
Those ai data centres, etc, may cost someone or something a gazillion billion, but they sure ain't worth it.
It’s not weird, it’s capitalism!!
I recorded and copyrighted a WAV of myself farting once, and now I hear it everywhere. Fuck AI firms.
Weird is not even remotely the correct word. $$$
Terrible analogy.
The library everyone built is still there, free of charge for everyone to use.
What AI companies have built is an assistant who has photographic memory and has read everything in the library.
You’re still free to use the library to find what you want, but the library is not using the Dewey decimal system.
You’re also free to build your own knowledge base using the information from the library if you want to, and charge for access or give it away for free.

And tells you to eat rocks and glue.
