"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.

KPMG report contained AI hallucinations on benefits of . . . AI (www.ft.com)

A KPMG report on how AI is being used by businesses across the world exaggerated adoption of the technology with bogus case studies that appear to have been based on AI hallucinations. The October report, “Redefining excellence in the age of agentic AI”, made numerous false claims about the use of AI by organisations including the Swiss bank UBS, the UK’s National Health Service and the public transit groups Swiss Federal Railways and Transport for London. The inaccuracies were identified as AI hallucinations by the research group GPTZero and verified by the FT.

Big consultancies such as KPMG and EY are viewed as highly credible

Ahahahaha no. You hire them to create fancy-looking slides and reports that support decisions you already made. They will include a lot of weasel words and assumptions that aren't true. Then, when shit hits the fan after management's dumb idea flopped spectacularly, management can hide behind "but we even had big consultancy corpo confirm this is a good idea" while big consultancy corpo can say "assumptions we made were not upheld due to a changing environment blah blah..." and nobody has to take any responsibility. I always call it "decision-based evidence-making".
