"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.

My company is not like that. They care about the employees. It's actually written in black and white in the company's charter: the purpose of the company is to do good by its employees and the community it operates in.
I've brought up my concerns about AI before and they've reacted: they invested in machines capable of running models locally for the engineers (I have one on my desk) and they formed a committee on AI safety and building local infrastructure to untie ourselves from the big cloud AI providers.
My company is one of a rare few such companies. Most other employers are like yours. Yet as good as mine is, AI is like cocaine to those who use it and to the bean counters: they know it's bad but they just can't stop.
