"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.

Except that it is? You literally added a quote of something neither I nor anyone else said ("After I attacked her, she reacted in a way that hurt my feelings") and then provided your own reply for it justifying her response. One her real reactions, btw, was portraying her "attackers" as rapists. You did not quote any "attacks" nor her response, but justified it nonetheless because people were "attacking" her.

Criticize != Attack

As a refresher, here's what a straw man argument is:

A straw man argument (or straw man fallacy) is a logical fallacy that occurs when someone distorts or exaggerates an opponent's actual position, and then refutes that fake, weaker version of the argument instead of the real one.

If you don't see how your reply fits that definition, I'm afraid I can't help you.

was portraying her "attackers" as rapists.

$20 says this guy thinks he's being called a rapist.
