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.

Is that illegal?
It’s shitty, for sure, but cops don’t usually arrest people for just being shitty.
Per the comments on the article:
Probably refused to leave, or the situation in general was getting heated.
Likely. That said, it’s a crap thing to do. But, incidents like this also have started an overkill backlash against people who use AI for the simplest tasks who openly take no credit. I get AI takes away from them, but they are shooting themselves in the foot with the incessant need to bash/shame anything done with AI. Hell, I lost feeling in my entire right side of my body, so telling me to suck it up and to use MS Paint is borderline trolling and completely missing the flowers for the trees.
