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.

You can pry my em dashes — that I’ve been using for more than a decade — from my cold dead hands

I’m too fucking negative and grumpy to be mistaken for ChatGPT.

And I swear.

This is the way.

Just be yourself and use the first person a lot. Adding something from your personal experience and avoid repeating the same point over and over helps too.

What the duck are you talking about?

Bullet points with sub titles in bold are soo easy to understand, but now they makes me look like a fool. A goddarn fool.

I'm with you here. If people are going to accusing me of being AI because of my use of em-dashes—a personal use that predates the Internet almost!—well, that's what block buttons are for. Dumbasses get blocked.

The proof of humanity is going for an em-dash in an application that doesn't fix them for you, and instead just having two dashes side by side.

I'll keep using my em dashes and bulleted lists, and in exchange I'll just write unbearably long posts so you know I'm a human. Deal?

Na it's fine, they'll know I'm not chatgpt, because I have... ✨a personality✨

I have 20 years of typography muscle memory and styleguide rules that dictate proper use of em and en dashes. I’m not dumbing it down. If people can’t tell AI from human writing we’re truly cooked and it won’t be because of punctuation.

Libreoffice was converting mine as I typed

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 2 points 2 months ago

Nah -- double dashes ftw

Here's a cool blog post about this.

Bye bye, em dash (—) 👋
