"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.

Car tires, I think the world over, are sized in millimeters of tread width, aspect ratio of sidewall height, and inches in rim diameter. A 215-65R 15 is 215mm wide, 65% of 215mm from bead to tread, and fits on a 15 inch rim.
Tire sizes are what happens when metric and imperial have a drunken getaway weekend.
Tire sizes are what happens when an industry centers itself around tetra ethyl lead.
