I consider generative AI to be a technological breakthrough - that's the pattern we've settled into for progress: long plateaus and then rapid iteration on anything that breaks the plateau. Obviously, it is a small one and no one where remotely close to what people claim or want it to be. It does serve to demonstrate how unerringly, completely FUCKED we are if we ever get close to artificial intelligence. We blew up the economy after inventing artificial stupidity. We're fated to rug-pull eachother into the stratosphere gambling on how long until we accidentally nuke ourselves.

"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 know this is fuck AI, humor me a second.
To go bit on sci-fi, If AGI is developed, it would probably be minutes and it would have made itself aware to all humans. Exponential growth would make sure of that. Any sandbox we puny humans would have build for it would be broken in seconds. If we are lucky it would not destroy us instant.
When will that happen, 1000 years, 10k years? Most likely we have destroyed ourself before this happens. Definately not with these LLM models.
