"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 he please go back to South Africa?

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 28 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I'd be happy if he was put off on a deserted island with a bottle of olive oil and a handgranade.

I'd prefer he die slowly and painfully. A bottle of oil and a spork.

Ah, you thought I meant it like... oh no, my thought was more like, leave him without water, soon he'd be desperate enough to drink the olive oil, giving him worse shits, and when he couldn't take it any more the handgranade was his way out.

Why a handgranade and not a gun with a single bullet?

Because I don't want to litter weapons for anyone to get, I wanted something that would destroy itself when used.

But why give him an easy way out. Make him live through the whole experience until he dies painfully.

At this point I'd be happy if the ghouls ruining the world died in an intense euphoria, as long as they were gone.

How is Alex Karp connected to South Africa?

[–] tehsillz@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Does it matter? He has tons of upvotes. This site is fucking braindead.

He co-founded Palantir with Alex Karp (and others). This article is about Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir. Peter Thiel is a chairman of Palantir's board, not CEO.

Ah. I can't keep up with their little title shenanigans. My bad.
