"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.

And now the narrative has shifted to doing things fast without understanding. Otherwise you'll be antiquated and outclassed.

It is true. I feel left behind—like I don't belong in a world infested with ai slop.

It started over a decade ago, maybe more. In my 20's I hung out with people who had studied computer science at some very prestigious schools. The typical "I vote for the right, because I'm very smart and should be allowed to do whatever I want"-types.

Their attitude was that you should never learn anything that you're not making money from or is getting paid to learn, because they thought the brain has limited space.
