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.

I AM AN AI SLOP WHORE. I use chatgpt every goddamn DAY. You are all Luddites to me, who scoff at the motor vehicle while your horse stubbornly refuses your commute today. So many of you write "I used it once in 2022 and it was bad so now I Bing everything and spend hours of my precious life wading through the godforsaken modern internet". Not me, I send my AI slave into the fray while enjoying a fine Moscato, from the throne I built (with help from chatGPT on material selection and how to do joinery). If AI is "no good", you are not using it correctly.
Is this a copypasta? It should be a copypasta.

I tried to use it to write software to rotate my screen in a way that would please me and if I wasn't an experienced sysadmin the code it produced would have destroyed the computer's battery in a year or so.
That was this year.
Everything it makes is bad, the prose is awful, the orthography bland, the code mediocre. Any factual query I have made has had at least one critical error a non expert would miss. They are machines for giving idiots false confidence, atrophying your own skills, and producing the sort of aggressively mediocre writing one finds on reddit.
I think it is fucking hilarious to be proud about making yourself dependent on an industry that literally 450 billion dollars in the hole and 2 companies. I am sure that'll work out well for you.
The best use for it is as a sounding board to work through problems. That's it.
