"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.

This is one of my largest concerns regarding AI. Sure it can be a useful tool at times, but if it keeps summarizing websites, and keep just feeding information it takes from them, how long until the actual websites start dying off? And then what is it going to base its information on? The internet will become a wasteland of AI regurgitated hallucination.
Yeah I think that's the point. Just to make sure. It already is majority bot traffic. These tech billionaires don't care what we think or know. They're destroying the books. They control the context and manufacture the consent.
