"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.

"We are working on a technology that will accelerate climate change while hopefully making most of the population unemployed in a world where unemployment means you barely get the basic necessities of life, if even that! What? Why are you all booing?
More like "We are throwing cartloads of money at technology at the expense of actually meaningful improvements. Oh, and shedding jobs as well. Gotta make the lines go up. Oh, and we don't care at all for the environment, and this technology just so happens to be terrible af towards it. Oh, and don't expect getting a new ram stick in the next 2 years at the very least"
Ssshhhiiiiiiiiiiii, even with employment you can't pay for basic necessities. Shit's so fucked!
But but don't you understand, AI will allow them to reduce spending, if you only look at wages paid to humans and ignore the material costs of all the infrastructure and propaganda about how great it is
