"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.

The funny part is how people are so willing to jump from one thing they perceive as slop, to an entirely different thing they’ve never audited yet now somehow trust. 🤪
There’s gotta be a good market for hackers just forking and promising no AI to bring in all the reactionary suckers.
It’s included in OpenBSD and MacOS. It’s not just some random fork.
Oh this market already exists don't worry. Especially for load bearing software like rsync the potential is enormous and it's not lost on the bad actors.
Such a dumb take. We trust (or don't trust) the maintainers, not the software qua software. You think that's a typo and that's fine, ask your fucking friend about it, it knows. Idiot
They’re gonna us AI next week. Where will you go after that?
The next fork that fucking doesn't, that's how open-source works
That’s gonna be drawer of dirty forks eventually maintained by unqualified people
To my mind, the ones using AI are already unqualified.
