"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.

That's the whole point of the bubble: convincing investors and CEOs that AI will replace all workers. You don't need to convince the workers: they don't make decisions and an awful lot of CEOs have such a high opinion of themselves that they assume any feedback from below is worthless.
Not just a high opinion of themselves, they think everyone is as self-centered as they are, and any claims about needing human workers for the task by human workers is just self-serving and not caring about the work.
