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.

Was looking for pharmacy hours. Need my meds today.

"AI overview" showed me it was open til 10pm. I squinted and looked at the correct results below: open until 7pm.

Going to gets my meds now before it closes.

Search has literally gotten so much worse since they forced AI into it. Can I please have 2020 google back? Hell even earlier likely.

Tip: Adding "before:2022" in your image searches will avoid a lot of AI slop.

Another things that sucks with search engines these days:

Try searching for information on a subject that has been in the news recently (not info about news event), and all you get is current blogs and news articles from today and yesterday..

Yeah. Sadly Twitter is still the best place to get breaking news. As long as you follow respectable journalist.
