"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.

Good news. That is a lot of resources put forward for nothing more then a shiny new piece of tech which is mostly used as a toy.
This is how monetary policy works, new debt inflates a large bubble, it fails, then they bail it out. This usually leaves a bunch of infrastructure behind, but the bailouts poof that bad investment out of existence because it was all fake money to begin with. Powell has said this many times about the dotcom bubble.
