"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.

Yes, currently AI isn't reliable enough to use instead of a human. All the big AI businesses bet that this will change - either by training with more data or some technological breakthrough.
Could be they're right.
They tried that with Theranos because Elizabeth Holmes' machine could correctly identify four viruses.
Presumably LLM's have already trained on the entirety of human knowledge and communication and still produce buggy information, so I'm skeptical that it'll work out the way the VC's expect, but we'll see.
Thisthread is not about AI, it's about pattern predictions snake oil.
