"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.

Technical term is the ELIZA effect.

In 1966, Professor Weizenbaum made a chatbot called ELIZA that essentially repeats what you say back in different terms.

He then noticed by accident that people keep convincing themselves it's fucking concious.

"I had not realized ... that extremely short exposures to a relatively simple computer program could induce powerful delusional thinking in quite normal people."

- Prof. Weizenbaum on ELIZA.
