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.

Even if all involved data is explicity public domain?
What if it's not public data at all? Like artifical collections of pixels used to train some early upscaling models?
That's what I was getting: some upscaling models are really old, used in standard production tools under the hood, and completely legally licensed. Where do you draw the line between 'bad' and 'good' AI?
Also I don't get the analogy. I'm contributing nothing to big, enshittified models by doing hobbyist work, if anything it poisons them by making public data "inbred" if they want to crawl whatever gets posted.
Dude. Read the room. You're literally in a community called "Fuck AI" and arguing for AI. Are you masochistic or just plain dumb?
I'm trying to make the distinction between local models and corporate AI.
I think what people really hate is enshittification. They hate the shitty capitalism of unethical, inefficient, crappy, hype and buzzword-laden AI that's shoved down everyone's throats. They hate how giant companies are stealing from everyone with no repercussions to prop up their toxic systems, and I do too. It doesn't have to be that way, but it will be if the "fuck AI" attitude like the one on that website is the prevalent one.
So it's masochism. Got it. Hey, I'm not kink-shaming. I don't get it, but you be you.
Yeah, maybe.
But I’m sick of getting lumped in with AI/Crypto bros for my fascination with the space. And I’m legit scared of those bros taking everything over. Guess it makes me want to shout into the void.
