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.

Companies have a hard time understanding the word "unlimited", and "perpetual", it seems. But they love to use them! And sell them!

Bait and switch

It's a shame that the US government has watered down the enforcement of the meaning of dictionary definitions and what is allowed in advertising

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago

"Watered down" doesn't really do justice to the outright profiteering, grifting, theft and fraud taking place in just the oval office alone.

"Purchase" and "own" don't mean what you think either.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

It doesn't mean what they think, more like.

“Please be 10x more productive.”

“Oh and also don’t use so many tokens.”

No take!! Only throw!!

It’s simple, you’re allowed to be more productive but not cost more money.

This reminds me of the time that my company scaled up our servers so fast that AWS literally ran out of servers.

Iran hits datacenter in middle east

US DOD runs out of tokens

Coincidence? I think not

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Unlimited tokens

200,000 tokens per month (pp)

100,000,000 tokens

So which is is? Stupid article enabling stupid companies.

 order to use Ask Sage, the Army had access to 100,000,000 tokens as part of an annual subscription to an “enterprise pack.

Lmao is this a joke? A single person could use this in a day

I wonder how much it cost in AI use to bomb a school for young girls?

[–] Murse@slrpnk.net 21 points 2 days ago (2 children)

...not sure I buy the AI scapegoat in that situation. Knowing this administration, bombing the school was probably a direct order from the pedophile in chief himself, no computing shenanigans necessary.

[–] anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I thought that was well known. AI in the military is for laundering decisions, not making them.

Well said.

...I fucking hate it.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bingo. They hit a outdated target list because this admin doesn't value intelligence reports. The building was part of the base about a decade ago before Trump started weakening our already failing intelligence apparatus.

[–] BlaestEgnen@feddit.dk 3 points 1 day ago

Then they used big data algorithms, to determine the most effective strike - Based on the old data.

Had a person review for 5 seconds and rubber stamped it. We know Israel uses big data/AI algorithms in Gaza, there's no reason to believe the US doesn't use them for analytical purposes for their strikes

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

Telcos and ISPs have been doing this for decades. Not surprising at all

[–] StealthLizardDrop@piefed.social 14 points 2 days ago

what a disaster, there are plenty more girl schools to target 🎯
