"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.

People need to stop using the lie machines

LLMs have peaked already, and their peak was shit.

I played around with it a bit last night and prefer the new “personality.” The last one talked to you like a kindergarten teacher. If I’m desperate enough to ask an AI for something I don’t want to be buttered up, I want a simple, clear answer and links to the documentation I was trying and failing to find.

I miss the days when search engines would just give you the links you were looking for. I don’t like this.

I suspect that's why users are complaining about the new model. It's like the article talks about - the parasocial relationship between users and their AI agents. We grew up in an era when computers were tools, but these users want computers that talk to you like a friend.

And the kind of person that all-ins on them wants a mom...

And someday a fuckmaidmom.

On the OpenAI community forums and Reddit, long-time chatters are expressing sorrow at losing access to models like GPT-4o. They explain the feeling as "mentally devastating," and "like a buddy of mine has been replaced by a customer service representative." These threads are full of people pledging to end their paid subscriptions. It's worth noting, though, that many of these posts look to us like they have been composed partially or entirely with AI. So even when long-time chat users are complaining, they're still engaged with generative artificial intelligence.

Lol. How sad is it that people are using LLMs to write their fucking Reddit posts?

"I preferred the old way gpt would shit the bed, the way it shits the bed now is so formal."

It is possible in the web UI. For some reason its now called “classic”
