"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.

It's wild that doing obviously correct things is such big news.

His state's Board of Education would like a word? This is like the Mayor's promises to change the filthy, crime-ridden buses and trains. He doesn't have control over all the money that fuels the schools. He doesn't have much legal authority, either, for sweeping policy change. He's just doing the Spongebob rainbow over his head thing.

Wtf does a kid need to learn about AI?

It's a fucking chatbot. Even as someone that uses it regularly for work there was very little to learn about it. If you learn how to type from your days as an iPad kid, or how to talk from listening to your parents berate each other, you already know everything necessary to use AI to cheat your way out of ever having to learn anything.

You're already in school. Why not try learning a thing or two first to see if you hate it enough to never do it again?

I may be a straight white man, but I have such a political boner for Mamdani.

He's like......what would happen if a politician didn't go out of their way to make everybodies life worse?

I've literally never seen a Mamdani headline that didn't give me the warm and fuzzies in my tum-tum.

The ironic thing is, I've never been willing to go to war for any country. If Mamdani needed an army, I'd be there. But the irony is that he would never want an army. He just wants everyone to be happy.
