"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.

Exactly. Its classic misdirection.

Our intentionally addictive and predatory design isn't the problem, it's the youngsters using it, that's the real problem.

The reality is that worldwide governments are itching for more surveillance powers, and big tech always want less accountability - so age verification is perfect for both of them, and even allows them to spin the "what about the children" angle (despite the fact that an increasing number of these powerful people are being revealed as pedos)
