"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.

We had working digital assistants since more than a decade ago.
Siri, Google Assistant, and even jankier offerings like Cortana and S Voice were perfectly fine at creating calendar events, timers, and diction typing.
The LLMs are actively worse, and where is this more apparent than with Google Maps. If you enable Gemini, Google Assistant is pseudo-disabled in a limbo state, and you are left with no assistant at all for Google Maps.
