"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

My daily runner is a Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM. I have a bigger rig for fun and profit but that is just the side gig compared with this thing.
When I was 13, I'd kill for this setup
Pretty much. When I was 13 I was running a 486 33Mhz with 4MB of RAM. So compared with that thing, this laptop has 1000x the RAM.
I was 11 when they started to manufacture core 2 duo, grandpa
Ouch my old bones! But nah aging is kind of weird and fun. Feel like I'm 20 but the mirror gives away the show. Occasionally, you catch a reflection in a shop window and I just see my father.
