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.

Well, jobs with AI exposure at its current price point are starting to disappear. But what if:

  • energy prices were to rise, perhaps because someone started a war
  • there were a shortage of components to build additional capacity
  • the AI providers were to switch to a different price model
  • the VC cash subsidizing the actual cost were to suddenly dry up

Surely none of those could ever happen, and even if they did they probably wouldn’t have any impact.
