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.

Chatgpt did something similar to me yesterday. I needed help figuring out what to install to fix an issue I had. I asked.

"Do I need to I stall package A?"

It said

"you need to install pacgages B C and D, But dont install package A, you dont need that. Here is the command to install

sudo apt install A B C

I apologise I made a mistake I accidentally gave you the wrong command because you dont need package A. Here is the command you actually need

sudo apt install B C D

Like what the actual fuck! The results are so useless I wasted my entire afternoon and evening on this word salat generator trying to debug my issue and I never got any closer to a solution. What a waste of resources

Glorified (but surprisingly effective) random word generator strikes again

they want you to believe it's sentient.

it's not.

that's a trained response, clearly, because a machine can't typo.

That's also why every single AI interface mimics "chat"windows and uses realistic human voices.

Its just like any other scam: filter everyone out except for the most vulnerable potential victims and then latch on like a leach and bleed them for all their worth.

It not "mimicing chat", it literally is a chat. You throw words at model, it tries to come up with answer. This back and forth texting need to be represented in UI somehow, hence = chat.

No need to overthink and come up with conspiracy theory of something trivial. There a plenty of real reasons to hate "ai" companies.

"Chat" implies there's someone talking to you but there's no one there. I'd say that makes it mimicry.

It's just copying (plagiarizing) the text it was trained on, which did have typos and people apologizing for making typos.

I'm fairly certain many humans aren't sentient either.

Sonnet is pretty much an idiot, though.
