Fuck AI

"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.

AIs aren't trained to produce correct answers, but seemingly correct answers

I prefer to say “algorithmically common” instead of “seemingly correct” but otherwise agree with you.

I use "mathmatical approximations of correct answers"

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 hours ago

But that's wrong. It's not trained on correct answers. It's trained on whatever happens to be out there in the world.

It's mathematical approximations of words that are likely to be found near that question.
