"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.

I'm not opposed to AI, I'm opposed to the arse wipes trying to roll out an immature technology into critical scenarios with minimal oversight. I feel like most people who would describe themselves as anti-AI would agree that the problem is more about the socioeconomic context of this tech rather than the tech itself
That’s the thing. If AI can’t replace humans and take their jobs because it can’t be trusted to work properly in science and engineering, and it produces highly derivative crap in arts and literature, then there’s no socioeconomic context. Photoshop was a greater socioeconomic threat to painters and air brush artists than AI is to musicians and software engineers.
The problem is when people are up in arms about socioeconomic justice, nobody is warning the CEOs that they’re buying a pig in a poke, an ADE 651. This CEO is going to get people killed because he’s dismissing legitimate concerns as FUD from Luddites.
