I said you're free to hate it but it's not going away

You told me it was the Virtual Boy, a failed product that didn't even last a year

Suddenly it's all, "It's been around even longer than you say" and "there are reasonable use cases for LLMS"

Yeah, sucks to be a moron doesn't it?

Bet you won't make that stupid fucking claim ever again

As far as your gameboy analogy goes, handheld devices definitly didn't go away. It wasn't a fad, and it's still here... compare the game boy to your fucking phone and realize what a dipshit you still are

The Virtual Boy was a failed expansion of The Game Boy, as far as my analogies go I’d say I got it straight on. What we have had and used to its usable capacity for years is LLMs, what we are doing with them currently is The Virtual Boy point for point. My claim stands.

I was referring to compute capability, not format, your comprehension is garbage, probably from cognitive decline due to overuse of “AI” tools, which is yet another standout issue for your Virtual Boy.

Also, if your issue with my argument relies on critiques of my analogy usage as opposed to the actual issues I’m addressing then you’re failing. You did not address anything other than my usage of the words “Virtual Boy” and “Game Boy” and that LLMs have areas of functional applied usage, but ignored the caveat that how it’s being used and pushed now is a detrimental path for technological progress as a whole, akin to putting ionizing radioactive materials into wrist watches. Do you have anything is response to the actual issues with the technology, or just my choice in what I compared things to?

I just showed you that it's popularity is increasing. It's now in 88% of businesses. It's not the Virtual Boy, that was a product that was never popular, not even for a brief amount of time.

Nobody liked the Virtual Boy, nobody used it. It sold like shit and was gone in less than a year

That's not AI. Comparing AI to the Virtual Boy is terrible analogy, probably the worst I've ever seen

My original argument was that you could hate AI all you wanted but it wasn't going to go away. That people will continue to use it in the distant future and that 20 years from now we'll look back on people who thought it was a stupid fad and laugh. Just like how we laugh at old newspaper clippings of people saying the internet is a fad... that's how we'll view people who think AI is a fad

You were very unhappy about that. I couldn't be more wrong. I was so stupid for saying that you accused me of being paid to say it. You accused me of sucking my bosses dick and even went so far as to say that I'm so fucking stupid for saying that, I don't even work in software.

And not just you, I literally got banned from that sub for being an AI shill for saying that. When I explained that we use AI Agents to document our meetingss, manage our pipelines, and do baseline reviews for Pull Requests, I was told straight up that "AI can't do any of that"

Now suddenly you want to back-peddle all that homophobic bullshit about me sucking my bosses dick and act like, actually, you do know that LLMs have use and that you've known the whole time they're super useful and have been for years. Which is a big step back from your original claims that AI was, "entirely pointless" because it, "doesn't do anything new" and only for "idiots"

lol, fuck off

You are one insecure little man about your Virtual Boy.

“AI” doesn’t exist and never will, LLMs reached their full potential long ago, you’re advocating for corporate ownership and technological stagnation, and you fucking love sucking the dick of authority figures telling you what and how to think.

And you’re just fucking stupid and insecure to still be defending this shit to me at this point. Get a fucking life you insecure little crybaby.

[–] VelvetPinkOtter123@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

AI is what we call LLMs, don't be willfully ignorant, you know that. When people say they are going to "Goggle it" that doesn't mean that they have to use Google. Some people refer to all soda drinks as "Coke". Saying "AI" instead of "LLM" is fine. LLMs are a subset of AI anyway. But more importantly, semantics don't matter, you're just desperately trying to distract from the fact that you said it was a useless tool that doesn't do anything new and is only for idiots

Advocating? I just said that you were free to hate it but it's not going to go away and people are going to look back on these, "AI is dumb" posts the same way we look back on newspaper clippings of people saying the internet was a fad

You got mad, not me. You didn't have to reply at all, you chose to. And with a lot of mocking anger. I didn't call you a shill or accuse you of being a lying sack of shit that sucks his bosses dick. You literally just said, "You're just fucking stupid and insecure... get a fucking life you insecure little crybaby". How are you going to type out all of that and then claim I'm the one that's mad?

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Then why are you so mad, bruv?

[–] VelvetPinkOtter123@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

"Hey, remember that time I called you a shill? Fuck off and go play with your Virtual Boy."

"you stupid fucking shill."

"you can be a stupid shill and know nothing about the greater concepts of what you shill, you’re a perfect example of that"

"You just love sucking dick."

"you just love sucking dick, compensation doesn’t have to be financial for you to be a shill."

"Holy shit, man, fuck off already."

"Get a fucking life."

"Just walk away, dumbass"

"You are one insecure little man"

"you’re just fucking stupid and insecure"

"Get a fucking life you insecure little crybaby."

-- That you?
