"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.

And what exactly is the “trick”? After multiple years, people (especially “tech journalists”) still don’t know how LLM’s work. It is literally Shit in - Shit out. It is not making up things (unless it is hallucinating), it is just an echo of something it found in the past. And this may be a wikipedia article, or a fake blog.
So what the fuck are people surprised about? I hate those useless “tech” journalists. And BBC can go fuck some Zionists anyways.
They're not surprised, they're just demonstrating how easy it is to insert false information in there.
