"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.

More than that. At the current discount prices, LLM providers bleed money like mad. They will run out of cash soon if they don't raise the prices to profitable levels. Just double won't cover it.
Which will lead to most customers dropping the LLM services stat. Which in turn will force the LLM providers to up their prices even more...
When my last employer opened up a publicly available chatbot they asked us not to test it because of how much it costs. It was a sales bot, we had recently had the company decimated by redundancies.
A common act of protest was to abuse the public chatbot from a non work device.
