"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.

can't you block the phone home in your router?
From the Gamers Nexus video I watched on this, the software gets installed via Windows Update, so I think you'd have to block OS updates too. For the moment, the fix appears to be Group Policy Editting to tell Windows not to install hardware related software automatically when it detects said hardware connected.
Edit: That's just for the PC monitor side of things. The TV side might work, though you'd be blocking TV OS updates.
