"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.

Left is the picture from the posting, right is google street view.

This shit really ruins everything, luckily it's bad enough in this case to easily spot. AI gibberish on the sign, no small balcony in front, rock wall next to the street missing, pretty mountain in the background that doesn't exist, weird blue pole.

I hate how this turns the whole internet adversarial, even more so than it already was. You really need to double- and triple-check everything and trust nothing, unless you want to turn up some place and get let down. I really don't understand what drives people to do something like this. And I don't know how this can go any other way than the internet just becoming completely useless.

Bonus pics from inside:

Note how the lamp seems to have grown more leaves in between shots, and how the fireplace door wraps around the corner in one picture, but not in the other, as well as lacking any handle to open it.

You discover that it doesn't exist and you have to make last minute alternate arrangements.

Airbnb will try to help you, but if it's during a busy season, you are kinda fucked. Once my airbnb host for a 5 bedroom house cancelled last minute and airbnb was like "don't worry, we can get you alternate accomodations" and recommended me to a field that we could camp at, lol.

You'd probably get refunded by Airbnb, and they'd ultimately pay the monetary price of the scam, but yeah, trying to find a hotel or b&b with space at the last minute would be mega stressful. Worst comes to worst, you sleep in the car.
