"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.

I can kinda see the idea. Instead of putting the AI recommendation engine in the app, you have a separate app for it. Instead of relying on your behaviour, you decide what to prompt it to recommend.
But I think I'm probably being way too optimistic with this perspective description. If it is like I just described, though, I can see why some people would want to use it.
But it would likely still have to rely on collecting behavioural data to be any good, and it would cost humongous amounts of energy and resources... For very little benefit.
