Fuck AI

"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.

I'm not as anti-AI as the rest of this place but I am 100% in favor of being honest about it.

I found a mod passing off AI generated images as authentic, vintage sci-fi covers. I asked why they were mixing them together and was not only banned but they deleted my comment.

I didn't complain. I didn't call it slop. I asked a question. I'm not anti-AI, I just want it properly labeled so people know what they're looking at. Passing off AI generated covers alongside real covers and not distinguishing is just plain dishonest. Claiming to have found them on an old hard drive is a brazen lie.

Nowhere in the rules of the community does it say it needs to be labeled.

That you require that is completely on you. It isn't a lie. No matter how much you would like that.

Just by reading the rules it is obvious that community would have a ton of AI vintage images.

It is like going to an animal picture community and complaining why the bear pictures aren't labeled because you have a fear of them. Even though in the rules it clearly states bear pictures are allowed and don't need to be labeled.

It is kind of selfish.
