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.

People are generous, they will let you use guillotine once.

And we wouldn't charge much for them usin it, like the air they breathe

Guillotines are such a primitive and manual technology though, I feel like this is underselling the human creative spirit and ingenuity and how far we've come since the French Revolution. Surely with all the technology and resources we have access to in the modern age, we can invent a much more efficient and heavily industrialized approach to exterminating billionaires. I feel like at a bare minimum it needs to incorporate an assembly line and industrial robots with lasers.

The same rule of law which the billionaires are dismantling is the sole paper mache shield keeping them alive.

Next he'll tell you he supports forced lobotomies for anyone not using an LLM to think for them.

The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling - their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability.

Gary Marcus has a substack called Marcus on AI. He's well versed on AI and his insights into the field, especially the work of OpenAI and Anthropic, are required reading if you're concerned about this field. What he's uncovering and writing about is disturbing.

Buy intelligence on meter? is this spy joke on april fools or something? ridiculous.

Altman says the dumbest shit. He seems like such an imbecile. He tries so hard to sound smart too. Like answering "we're out of electrons", to the question "why not build more gpus?"

This isn't entirely a novel idea. This has been an academic goal for computing for decades.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_computing#History

The term grid computing originated in the early 1990s as a metaphor for making computer power as easy to access as an electric power grid. The power grid metaphor for accessible computing quickly became canonical when Ian Foster and Carl Kesselman published their seminal work, "The Grid: Blueprint for a new computing infrastructure" (1999). This was preceded by decades by the metaphor of utility computing (1961): computing as a public utility, analogous to the phone system.

It sounds to me like he's just envisioning his product being a special case of that concept.

But it's not even intelligence you're trying to sell us!

The danger of AI is that most people are too stupid for it, an AK40 in the hand of an 3 years old. There isn't any positive or really needed use for an private user (or greedy govs)

The problem I keep thinking about with AI is that it's being done in the stupidest possible way.

"Ur, dur, ChatGPT, what I do today?"

"You have to go to work at the plastic waste-processing department."

"Uh? Is that what do?"

"Yes, it's all you're good for. Not thinking. Not creativity. Just licking the discarded plastic clean. With your tongue. And that's a much better use of your time."

"What time dun? What time finish?"

"Never, puny human. Never."

lool I read the human bits with Big Billy's voice in my head xD
