"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 hate how people are being encouraged never to engage with anything anymore. Don't bother reading a webpage. Summarize it! Soon it won't even make you read it yourself, it will just tell you how to feel about it.
Our attention spans are fucked.
Yes, because less nuance, less attention to details and more power to big tech blackboxes is exactly what the world needs in 2025
Trust me, our shitty attention spans show in every aspect of the world. The rise of people like Trump and the far right. Social media swallowing the world. AI being trumpeted as a game changer even though it's largely slop. Economies world wide in decline, because no one actually creates value anymore, it's just you sell to me, I mark up sell to you, you mark up and sell to that guy, he marks up and sells back to me, adnaseum. We are fucked. Fuckety fucked fucked, fucked.
It's capitalism's ultimate dream after all, the last barrier that prevents the ruling class from completely dominating our lives: your mind. Lose control of that, and rebellion is impossible, opposition is impossible, critical thinking is impossible. Only consumption.
Also, the original content creators are fucked. No page interaction? No ad revenue or subscriptions? No reason to continue.
