"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.

Tokens are pretty much the compute used for one word, approximately, or some other information of a similar size. (Long words are two or three tokens each actually)

Then, yes those tokens are paid for with "credits" which is them gamifying the purchase lol
