"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.

Ironically, the actual human contributions to Wikipedia play a significant role in training LLMs. And since you can't train LLMs on LLM generated text without recursion errors, the more Wikipedia is contaminated by AI text, the less useful Wikipedia becomes for training purposes.

I'm torn between thinking "keep poisoning your own fucking well, assholes" and "look at all this free labor Wikipedia editors are doing to help AI developers".

They won‘t poison old books and such, the internet didn‘t keep any promises anyway.
