"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 often wonder what would happen if we funded those passionate weirdoes who just want to help.

I have a similar thought, what life might be like if we overfunded our education system instead of overfunding the military. There are plenty of brilliant people being born in the poorest zip codes every day, too hungry to think or focus in school and destined for the prison pipeline due to poverty that's outside of their control.
