Fuck AI

"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 political right hates AI a little less than the left, but not by super much, and some forces from the emerging America First movement are getting ready to protest AI's invasiveness and capacity for manipulation. The org is called Humans First, and they're trying to have a 50501-style nationwide protest about it on July 18th. If both sides cooperate on this one, good things can actually happen, so this should get talked about. A lot. https://www.humansfirst.com/

This feels super weird. Would they turn liberals away if they showed up? (Or at least tell them to go protest across the street because "this side is for anti-globalists" or whatever.) I dunno, just seems odd to try to create a popular movement specifically by alienating people who would agree with them on that particular issue.

I'm going to see if my DSA Chapter can get some people to these protests and hand out lit.

doubtful, since conservatives are almost always protesting out of selfishness, they voted for this to happen and just now they dont like it because its literally on thier doorsteps.
