"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.

How anyone thinks they are productive with llm tools is baffling (sh.itjust.works)

It has to be pure ignorance.

I only have used my works stupid llm tool a few times (hey, I have to give it a chance and actually try it before I form opinions)

Holy shit it's bad. Every single time I use it I waste hours. Even simple tasks, it gets details wrong. I correct it constantly. Then I come back a couple months later, open the same module to do the same task, it gets it wrong again.

These aren't even tools. They're just shit. An idiot intern is better.

Its so angering people think this trash is good. Get ready for a lot of buildings and bridges to collapse because of young engineers trusting a slop machine to be accurate on details. We will look back on this as the worst era in computing.

Had a person a few years back who would never ever learn.

In fact, a way I have expressed my opinion of LLM is that it is like working with that useless guy, except at least faster.

Based on my experience, the broader company is chock full of the never learn developers and I suppose I can see why they see value in the LLM, but either way their product sucks and no one likes them.

You're so right .

And if the person sucks that bad, get rid of them

Yeah, but the same bad management that keeps thinking LLMs are magic are the same bad management that kept that guy around.

Every interaction that guy had where a senior tech ever dared to say he was useless ultimately landed the senior tech in hot water with management, as they claim "he says you aren't providing what he needs to suceed, that he is very skilled and willing to work, but you never told him how or gave him access or (a million other excuses that were generally lies)".

After a way too long career with us, he finally overplayed his hand by making the same old claims to the manager about no one giving him what he needed to work. Except he forgot that this time, the manager himself was the one who had been directing him and so he accidentally was accusing the manager of lying to himself.

Finally, the only person with credibility to the manager was on the receiving end of this guys grift.

Its all a grift in the end!

Thats why youll mostly see conservatives/Nazis in love with llms. It fits their propaganda agenda perfectly.
