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.

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.

“I think [giving the bot access to all channels] was pretty clearly explained above as honoring the vote,” he said. “Just because you hate AI is not a reason to take the least charitable interpretation of the outcome: we made changes as a result of the vote. We have to optimize for the preference of everyone which means that the mob doesn’t get to rule, I’m sorry.”

Wtf does this even mean. How can you honor the results of a poll and the preferences of everyone by doing the exact opposite of said preferences?? Gird your fucking loins and say you’re doing it because it’s your server and that’s how you want it, or accept that the thing you want isn’t actually popular.

What is it with AI pushers and their complete inability to keep it to themselves, Christ. Unless it’s done something fucked up, nobody is interested in seeing your AI chats. If people wanted to talk to ChatClaudeGeminiCopilotGPT they’d do it on their own time.

Because at its core, the AI bubble is the ultimate embodiment of the "growth at any cost" mentality that's been festering in corporate American culture like a gangrenous wound since the 80s.

What is it with...

You remember they had these people who'd knock on your door on the weekend and see if you wanted to join their group now, despite telling them firmly about 59 times previously it's not gonna happen?

Yeah. Like that.
