"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.

A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot on the Discord, despite protests from members.

Users voted to restrict Anthropic's Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.

Sounds about right.

People like to paint these tech execs as Machiavellian liars, but to some extent, they really are drunk on Kool-aid. They make objectively terrible business and personal decisions based on some lucid dream they think the rest of the world shares.

They genuinely believe profit and positions of power are objective indicators of social utility.

They’re successful because what they’re doing is right

They have become delusional to the point of being extreme dangers to the community

That’s the best proof I see against meritocracy. We were told all those guys were there because they were the brightest and more competent. There is absolutely no thinking or logic in their actions lately outside of social contamination.

Meritocracy is just Dei Gratia lying about how hard they worked.

And they think just because they are rich they a) earned it and b) are really intelligent.

[–] PartyAt15thAndSummit@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They just like sniffing their own farts.

Lean a little bit closer, see, roses really smell like poo-poo-poo...
