"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.

Salesforce has now begun reframing its AI strategy, shifting away from the language of replacement toward what executives call “rebalancing.”

Gee, I wonder why the executives suddenly don't want anyone talking about replacing people 🤔

Unfortunately, the company I work for uses Salesforce to supply equipment to me and my colleagues.

I've not been able to log in with my given credentials to order winter gear.

This... Explains a lot.
