"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.

OCR isn’t a large language model. That’s why sometimes with poor quality scans or damaged text you get garbled nonsense from it. It’s not determining the statistically most likely next word, it’s matching input to possible individual characters.
