"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.

The AI hype has become so stifling that I can certainly understand the knee-jerk reaction that many are having, but at the end of the day it's just math. It's a tool which, like all tools, can be used for good or bad. If you're interested, I'd highly recommend looking into the story of AlphaFold. You can find some really good long form articles that have been written about it. It's not only a truly impressive technical achievement, but also one of the few technological breakthroughs in recent memory that is (at least as far as I can tell) truly, indisputably, good for humanity.
