"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.

Anyone old enough to remember the first time Opera had a paid version of its browser?
I swore it off then (90’s) and will never go back.
You used to have to buy netscape. You could also buy "the internet yellow pages" to find websites.
The 90s were a wild time on the internet.
I have one of those! I treasure my copy of UNIX for Dummies, came time frame.
Good thing that it was fully functional and only a very big Ad banner resides in the toolbar unless paid off.
But damn was the Opera Browser great (and the presto engine was super strict what I absolutely loved)
