"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.

Still overpriced, and not that overpriced.

Hell probably even 20 from China for the same price. I do condone buying silly stuff from Aliexpress, Temu, etc., tho.
