"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.

i think the biggest problem here is that "smarter than human AI" is already here, not because AI is so good, but because it's very easy to be "smarter than human". Clearly we're too stupid to stop building the "50% chance to kill us all" machine. Even if it can't kill us, and I don't believe it can, it's still doing actual irreparable harm to the entire world and we can't seem to get it together enough to stop them. There's no need to drink the kool aid because you don't have to believe it's smart to believe we're too stupid to be trusted with it.
