"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.

Feel free to give an example. But how would that be different from learning via a book, magazine, or YouTube video?
You don't need to take everything it says as gospel, just like you'd cross reference any Google search of importance.
Just read the damned studies already, K?
And don't ask the fucking parrot to do it for you. YOU do the mental work. YOU find the studies. YOU read the studies. YOU use YOUR brain to figure it out.
Lazy motherfucking slop-mongers are such a fucking pain in the ass.
AI averages all the text on the internet. So you cannot rise above this bar if you learn from an llm. It's only possible by reading text books written by human experts.
I can give my field as an example. It's been objectively measured that AI generates terrible code compared to humans on average. So if you learn coding from an llm it'll be disastrous compared to learning from text books or courses.
Benefits of llms for learning are not demonstrated in the lab. Studies have only shown the opposite—that ai makes you stupid and delusional.
