"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.

Saw this dipshit at a conference last week. He's leaning into the jacket jokes and it couldn't be more cringey. My industry is fucked and is buying into the marketing hype whole-ass. There are some applications in the field but what people don't seem to get is that for every round of applause thing fuckwit gets, hundreds or thousands of people stand to lose their jobs. We live extremely dumb times.
He seems more like Musk every day.
Yeah, but the leather jacket! He’s got pizzazz! Panache!
Moxie even!
If AGI had arrived, I'm sure I'd be finding out from it, not from you.
Next week: AGI breaks containment and announces new cryptocoin to celebrate AGI.
You know, I could believe that the first act of an AGI that was built entirely off whatever text was most convenient to get on the internet would be an attempt to scam people. That absolutely tracks.
These people should be in prison for the blatant market manipulation alone
Come ooooooon. You know you want to dump another 300B into the AI machine! This time they made a real breakthrough! It is 200,000,000 times better than the 5 breakthroughs we have blown trillions of dollars in investments in over the past few years! The projected earnings are insane! Just look at this chart we made with AI! It says you will get a Gorillian dollars!
When the bubble pops we're going to have to change currency to gorilla dollars

so like sticks and leaves because that's gonna be all that's left
This man is a giant piece of shit. I'd be willing to lose everything and I own if it meant putting these assholes out on the street.
Guy selling shovels says there’s gold just over there!
There’s a better chance of me getting struck by lightning twice than there is of AGI arriving in the next 5 years.
Congratulations on whatever you're talking about my dude.
AI is still a hype fuled dumpsterfire
What a tool.
Him that is, his product is crap.
“I’m done buying into the hype”
Bait or just dumb?
Both most likely
"Hype" is obviously something that should be ignored, just like "influencers"
You’re curing cancer, right?

Nvidia CEO Stupid Jacket once again declares ‘AGI has arrived’ — but he’s been wrong before, and I’m done buying into the hype
The Jacket isn't stupid.
It's a manifestation of Nvidia's mission statement in clothing form; a sign of it's individuality and its belief in corporate freedom. CEO cool jacket is just the next step in the lineage of trailblazers that use black leather jackets to look cool, like James Dean or Arthur 'The Fonz' Fonzarelli.
I get how it might stupid if you don't understand the history and context behind it, but the Jacket itself is okay
He has gone full grifter.
