"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 obviously not talking about eating mushrooms, here is a link I found after literally searching for 1 minute that explains what "the brain hallucinates reality" means if you never thought about things like that before.
OMG it's a freaking TED talk! The fact that the brain is perceiving the experiences through the senses doesn't mean it is necessarily hallucinating in the same sense an llm is; How do you pair that argument with the fact that our body is also intelligent? That we have a corporeal experience that feeds our construction of the world? Does your argument has anything to do with that bullshit about all of us "living in a simulation?" because that videogame obsessed tech bro shit has been outdated for more than a decade. Also that idea of the "body as an interpreter for the transductors of our senses" Reeks of that old Christian mind and soul duality. It's one of the reasons i tend to say that this obsession with large language models is Christianity for tech guys. You want to be in heaven with AI god? You want to live eternal life as a digitized brain? X,D
To be fair, as you all are mostly angry I thought a ted talk would even be too much for you all.
It's kind of funny that you try to dismantle arguments made by the nost renowned recent philosophers with cheap tricks and logical fallacies.
A shame because the subject is quite interesting. IMO.
Yeah dude , you are very intelligent according to you! Go do a self wank somewhere else!
