A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The collateral damage from LLMs is just starting. No one asked for this -- see also: the rousing success of Alexa and Siri -- yet now we're all having to adapt our lives around code that makes up shit.

I'd rather Wikipedia didn't use such software, but if they're getting slammed with AI-slop content, what options do they really have?
