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.

Any usage of AI is being complicit with the larger AI project of these billion dollar companies as it further legitimizes their use. So yes fuck this business person in particular, I hope the customer sues and he goes bankrupt. This is a literal leopardsatemyface moment, everything about this is completely self inflicted. Maybe this wouldn't have happened if they used their brain and considered not using a lying machine as a replacement for their customer support.

You can go out there and organize, educate, do outreach to actually make a difference, or point a finger and laugh to feel superior. The latter is the same as getting drunk to forget about the world.

I'm sure you've done things out of not knowing any better. How would you feel about a thread like this?
