"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.

When the AI companies have to start charging more to actually turn profits.

Right now their prices are artificially cheap to grow their user base, but they're losing money. Eventually they have to recoup those losses, and when that happens LLMs are going to look a lot less attractive than they do right now.

Might be soon if the energy crisis gets much worse. Market crashes usually happen in October after all...
