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.

It is a legit thing AI companies worry about as you end up with what’s called model collapse. Where if you feed AI input in you only get garbage out and it just eats itself. It’s something they don’t like to talk about as you’ll always need a human in the loop.

The irony of a company trying to replace workers with AI firing workers for using AI is hilarious though.

At the same time they are also pulling towards it because of the potential recursive self-improvement has. It's not about just the training data anymore, it's AI finding new training techniques, new kernel architecture and so on. It's a separate, potential scaling vector as the training data vector has pretty much been maxed out in terms of big benefits.

So what you're saying is that the key to self-improvement is to hallucinate as much as possible?

Guess I'm go do some shrooms and possibly LSD 🤷🏻

AI encourages a level laziness that is hazardous to companies and I love it. If we only used this to our collective advantage....

I like how the headline just crams in "AI" so many times that's it's barely readable 😄

I dislike that it's probably for SEO purposes, though

To me it felt more like humor, they over-used it intentionally to highlight the absurdity.

Soon there won't be anything but AI to train AI. They've been shitting where they eat.

They'll soon get special permission from the government to break into your house and scan your diary and grocery lists.

When companies demand workers use AI to be more productive...
