"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.

Yeah but it would take some amount of skill to set that up. With AI you can ask it how many times an employee said "please" and "thank you" and it will give an answer.
Of course the answer may be just made up, but you don't care, you provide the numbers to your boss and get bonus points for being hip to the new AI tech. Your boss doesn't care because the numbers all go into a database which another AI will "analyze" and the company can say they are a data driven AI native company and billionaires buy more shares. They don't really care either because at some point when they all see each other at whatever is the present day version of Epstein Island and they'll all decide to all short AI all at once. They make money on everything with AI hype when the stock go up and they'll make more when the whole thing crashes.
You just gotta understand how the tech business works!
