"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.

I wouldn't be that bad if it finally got developers to optimize their darn apps for once so they make more efficient use of the limited hardware.

The phone manufacturer has to slim the OS down first... Android needs 2GB just to run, but I often see 3-3.5 GB used by the system with nothing else installed. By contrast, you can get down to 1-1.5 GB with LineageOS and Gapps installed, so it is possible to streamline, but it means a lot of functionality is stripped out.

Not a lot of functionality but a lot of bloat

I don't mind how graphene runs on a pixel 9 I dumped an iPhone 15 pro because iOS 26 sucked so bad.

No AI here
