"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.

The output AI provides does not offset the tediousness of using it, not to mention that you have to always check its work thoroughly because it can tell you absolute nonsense. Google AI told me my local supermarket was open on thanksgiving day and it wasnt. Then I drove to a safeway nearby that google said was open 24/7 on thanksgiving day, and it was closing at 6. I got what I needed with seconds to spare.
EVERYTHING about using AI is like this. You cant trust it for shit and when you really need it to be accurate, it wont be. Nobody needs that in their lives, and CEOs and AI freeks are glossing over how much of a pain in the arse it is to use for anything but very very narrow use cases, where a google search would do fine anyway. I not only dont need it, I hate it.
