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.

If anyone knows something about robots posing as humans, it's frakking Starbuck.

I can't imagine how utterly inane and pointless an AI podcast would be.

[–] CptOblivius@lemmy.world 48 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have you heard a Joe Rogan podcast?

[–] cheesybuddha@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, I stopped taking him seriously when he did Fear Factor. Though he was great on News Radio

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

if he stuck to acting, he probably would be somewhere in hollywood, instead hes on roided up and doing this for a living.

[–] ThefuzzyFurryComrade@pawb.social 220 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Such is the hypocrisy of your average AI bro. It’s all fun and games watching the tech plunder the arts and put people out of jobs — until it threatens to replace you, apparently.

I want to frame this quote.

[–] falseWhite@lemmy.world 59 points 2 days ago

Rogan, in sum, is admitting to being self-aware enough to know that he’s getting served soulless slop, but doesn’t have standards high enough to preclude him from enjoying it anyway.

I like this one too.

Oh hey! The first human whose job I'm fine with AI taking!

[–] BoycottTwitter@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

Monkey's paw: the AI is controlled by Russia and spreads even more disinformation than Joe Rogan does.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 11 points 1 day ago

it is why the right wing politicians are obsessed with AI, its easier to spread it, and harder discern from it from the unitiated.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I'm frankly not particularly convinced this isn't already the case.

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

That's just Elon and Grok.

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago

How can you spread more disinformation? Any more and it would create a black hole from the density.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 92 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If AI can shut that dude up, I may need to rethink my opposition to it.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The right tool for the right job.

I can't wait for us to get liberal AI Joe Rogan, he will save us

Honestly, I actually believe that AI could replace thoughtless, dudebro podcasts.

Go fuck yourself, bro jogan.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 55 points 2 days ago

Spews bullshit without checking it for accuracy? ✅

People seem almost offended if others fall for it? ✅

Can initiate a vicious cycle of reaffirming biases? ✅

The most annoying people you know are super into it? ✅

Uh, Notebook LM could do this about 2 years ago.

A large potato could generate a Joe Rogan podcast. I just think they're neat.

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That's horseshit. You can do it with a medium potato.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

But the headphones keep slipping off.

Potato (optional)

[–] Thorry@feddit.org 48 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Damn impressive how they can make an entire article about 3 secs of an interview.

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

Welcome to the future of AI. /s

[–] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The fact that it was only three seconds of it is actually very telling information, as well.

That was cognitive dissonance in vivo.

[–] bluegreenpurplepink@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

Will AI Joe Rogan be as much of a sausage party as regular Joe Rogan?

[–] simsalabim@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was disappointed by Katee Sackhoff being on Rogan's show, but then I remembered that she gave Alan Tudyk a platform to spout his nonsense about Joss Whedon and the me-too movement so I guess she's right where she belongs.

[–] Yggnar@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What did Alan Tudyk say about Joss Whedon?

[–] simsalabim@lemmy.world 2 points 19 hours ago

He was really apologetic towards Whedon, because Whedon was always nice to women, and he never noticed that Whedon was inappropriate towards women in Firefly. How could these women speak out with these allegations, those can destroy the careers of a „good man“.

It was really sickening. As all the accounts from former Buffy actors (including James Marsters) are somehow fabricated to destroy Whedons career. Or his ex-wife’s accounts.

[–] MonkeyDumpster@lemmy.org 36 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I used to like rogan when I was younger but now I can't watch ten minutes of his podcast because of his awful takes on any and everything.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago

I can't say I ever really cared for him that much, but I certainly didn't start to hate him until I saw that clip of him screaming at that primatologist. That was eye-opening.

Katee Sackhoff is a great person.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago

She did an interview with the original Starbuck actor, Dirk Benedict, at a coffee shop. She called it Starbuck on Starbuck at Starbucks.

Was watching some GTA role players who were playing a mayor and they had podcasts that they distilled from in game police reports, govt laws etc over a year ago and it was too good. I could not tell, not that I am a good AI detector. Would do a cast every 3-4 days.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (3 children)

There are GTA roleplayers?!

Damn that's not something I expected to be introduced to. Very different from me and friends creating costumes and larping in the woods. I might need a rocking chair and a porch if anyone has spares they want to donate. Do my knees hurt?

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Oh ya, there are tons of GTA role player servers out there. Nopixel, Prodigy, Purple, RageMP (newbie friendly).

[–] phaedrus@piefed.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

There are also Red Dead Redemption 2 roleplayers! It's a surprisingly large community, and tons of mods have been made specifically for this purpose.

Even Thomas Middleditch does some:

RDR2: https://youtu.be/LUbVMk_IJvw

GTA: https://youtu.be/50X6BP87BnI

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

RdR makes a certain sense to me that GTA does not. But thanks I also didn't know that either.

Is that your hip or mine that's creaking?

[–] eletes@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

It's a roleplaying server, so it's multiplayer but someone might act as a cop or taxi driver

[–] Encephalotrocity@feddit.online 19 points 2 days ago

It’s gotten so out of his hand that his some of his fans ...

I don't know what's more annoying: that this glaring misprint is found right at the beginning of the article, or that neither M$ Word, nor Libreoffice see it as a grammar issue.

[–] FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website 17 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Man, of inexplicable fame, with strange opinions is temporarily caught out. Hold the press!

Maybe we should stop looking at what futurism is writing about because it seems to me that they are just writing tabloid stories for people who don't like so-called AI. I think this is the third time I clicked through on a link and am left with regret to have added to their page views.
