"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.

The funniest thing about this is that using AI slop for Superbowl ads is actually peak capitalism. The cost of the ad space itself dwarfs the cost for producing the ads, with AI or not. But the worthless MBAs driving this just can't help themselves.
Having commercials as a tradition is peak capitalism.
I don't have as much faith in AI. The manpower cost to have the team keep feeding prompts till it came out with something useful and then the energy bill to generate all the duds probably cost 100x more than it would have to hire writers, actors, editors, a director, and a crew to build sets.
they probably use AI to make the ai prompts.
