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.

AI is just quiet quitting now?

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago (5 children)

If I was paid $500 billion by the US government I would not quiet quit but that's just me tbf.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I could live comfortably on that much money for five million years

[–] Lifter@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 month ago

Probably more, you could easily live off thw dividends and keep investing.

That's just you. Melon Husk seems to quiet quit for a loooong time now and the dude being paid billions every year.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I wouldn't quiet quit.

I'd no-call no-show quit.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

I wouldn't even quiet quit, I'd full quit.
$500b and I'd be done with traditional working.

LOL the mechanical turks are burning out....

[–] EldenLord@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

In a way they are. To progress the LLMs, large amounts of current data is needed. Which now is poisoned with AI slop. The Slop is eating it‘s own shit

Honestly I find AI is more and more getting like this

I’ve asked it to do repetitive tasks and it tells me I should auromate them.

No shit.

[–] llama@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Well yeah if you can have it write a script to do the same thing over and over again, that's more efficient and reliable than asking AI to process similar data multiple times.

Hahahaha.

Just of PSA, duck duck go has a no ai url:

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/

[–] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago

Bruh this might be one my new default search engine link

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It also has one without js and one for limited rendering like dillo and gemini clients.

[–] llii@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Your links don't work to me. You need to include the protocol "https://" to your urls.

Amazing. Thank you very much. Just added this as my default search engine in Firefox Focus.

I can't wait until Windows 12, the AI-first operating system, comes out. People will ask Copilot to open the system settings and it'll be like "That's a great place to start! You can open the system settings by asking Windows Copilot to open the system settings!"

[–] mrmanager@lemmy.today 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I will just use my user-first operating system called Linux.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

2030, the year of Linux in the Desktop!

[–] BilSabab@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Windows 13 is going to have first completely uncooperative AI. You ask him to open system setting and it says "the fuck's good for me, eh?". You tell him to download Winamp and it tells you "what the fuck is that shit? it does even collect your data! fuck you, i'm not dowloading that, the gall!" or you tell him to turn itself off and it tells you "nah, i'm good" or if you ask to switch to manual it tells you "get fucked, you ain't getting that".

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 43 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Easy solution: don't use google. I suggest to use one of those: DuckDuckGo, Ecosia or Searx.be.

DuckDuckgo also allow you to hide some AI images

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Startpage. Google indexing without sponsorships, ai or any of that shit

yes, I use duckduckgo typically.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 37 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This is why it's absolutely ridiculous that Google automatically has AI answer search queries. One time I searched the serial number of a washing machine and the AI came back and said something along the lines of, this looks like a serial number for some sort of product. Yeah thanks for that.

I don't necessarily have a problem with AI although I think it's going to kill the economy, my biggest issue is AI being stuffed into everything in situations where it doesn't make sense.

"In the dictionary under 'redundant,' it says 'see redundant'" -Robin Williams

[–] Lifter@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

That's funny but it isn't redundant...

[–] GianBarGian@feddit.it 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah it should be recursive, not redundant

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

No, it should be recursive, not recursive

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Under Tautology it should say that the word Tautology carries the meaning of the word Tautology

Thanks for sharing. I use a metasearch engine so I don't have to see it. Unfortunately that doesn't make a big difference in the broader picture. For most users this is the default experience. Slop at the top, then advertisements and only then what a search engine is supposed to return. And those burnt CPU cycles will be forced upon them. And I guess that's pretty much normalized by now. Probably also the reason why Google does it in the first place.

Click on the first search result: "Thanks for visiting our page, try our new AI chatbot to help you make the best restaurant choices!" 🤣

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

This is dangerously close to: "here, let me google that for you." As if this brand of AI wasn't ouroboros-like enough.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

how the fuck is a generally aware company as google that they are poisoning their own userbase against it?

I have yet to meet anyone that wants gemeni in their browser or os.

[–] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Sundar is a true believer. He talks to his ai on the way home in his car, he has it summarize podcasts and books for him, he just thinks we haven't prompted it right yet.

Ingested too much stack overflow did we?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

We need to bring yellow pages back.

[–] svcg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 month ago

Can't wait until we burn an entire rainforest running a clanker that gets into a "let me google that for you" infinite loop.

[–] nieceandtows@programming.dev 8 points 1 month ago

Should have also included an lmgtfy link of the query.

[–] lectricleopard@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

If had to answer all the questions, better believe I'd be phoning in a bunch of them now and then, lol.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

There's this userscript to fix that.

[–] DarkSideOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

We should go on websites they scrape data and put much much more replies like this one.
