"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.

They're just flailing. Coming up with one idea after the next to keep the VC investments coming.
They're really hoping to recreate the addictive properties of Social Media that led to it's titanic growth and domination. That's why they want to get it in front of as many people as possible. The problem is that people just don't get hooked on it the same way, and without the kind of massive buy-in that sees the kind of ENORMOUS ROI these foundational model-makers need, it's all going to crash at some point.
Tbh, I don't think they intend to follow through with promises of a social media platform, jobs platform, OS, web browser, or hardware development in a meaningful timeframe. It's all a façade.
Exactly, just pillow-talk for investors. Er... in a manner of speaking!
