Fuck AI

"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.

my favorite part was where they said "it's morgin time" and continvoucly morged over everyone.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago

Or even "it was morgin timn", you know, since time is now timn and runs backwards

Branch got morged after that commit.

Is one of you cheeseaters using ai?

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm starting to feel ever more smug and comfy since I started converting my gut feeling about AI in the beginning, into an opinion based on myriad articles and discussion about how immoral, environmentally insane, and error-prone/dangerous it is when used in the wrong way.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 22 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Let us elevate "morged" as a verb to mean "got fubared because ai"

[–] teslekova@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

It's morgin time!

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

I came to the comments hoping to see "morged" adopted for this reason.

How should we say it in present tense? Morg or morge?

Personally, I'm voting "morg," with a hard g, because I think it sounds funnier.

The great news is that programmers will be quoting the diagram for the rest of tim.

"Hey boss, great news! I finished the project according to your instructions with the reversed arrow of time! I just un-merged the second and first commit and to ensure it stays at that state, I deleted all the backups, too! "

[–] GreenBeanMachine@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

The original one was being quoted long before Microslop shit. And yes, it will continue to be quoted for as long as it is relevant.

I'm beginning to understand why they're having so many problems with Windows 11.

The image was licensed under creative Commons where they just need to give attributions .

The author even offered the download of the original keynote file, if someone wanted to edit the text or change something

But no, they had to crunch it with copilot with some prompt "make it enough different so that we don't need to give attribution"

pls help. My bug fix branches keep getting continvoucly morged, and Tim is running backwards.

[–] xep@discuss.online 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Surprised the article didn't point out that the "Tim" axis is also pointing in the wrong direction.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 days ago

And the exciting new mn ligature they introduced for Tim / Timn

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 days ago

Why aren't Ai companies required to show their training data and include the licenses with each piece?

💯 reply to a microsoft VP in the thread where this was first called out

We recently had a big day where we all gather at the organization I work at with presentations. I saw some AI graphics which is fine imo, but I also saw full COMPLETELY GENERATED slides. Nice background images, fine looking diagrams but with alien and fake text that got worse the more you stared 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮. It felt embarrassing and unprofessional.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Around the turn of the decade there was this big movement to rename the master branch to main. GitHub, too, made that switch and when you create a new repository the master branch is called main. The original flowchart was from 2010, when the main branch was still called master, so it's called master there.

The AI generated flowchart, of course, is not a plagiarism machine and it's exactly like a human being that is merely inspired by the source material. Surely it used the up-to-date name for that branch?

Why the fuck not use the original one in the first place? Morons.

[–] HaraldvonBlauzahn@feddit.org 4 points 3 days ago

That would entail giving credit to people who actually haved used their brain.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

How is there no "It's Morgin time!" memes?

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Even the diagram this was ~~based upon~~ plagiarized from is too complicated for most projects to be using.
