"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.
Bwahahahaha! I don't even watch TV any more. Every time I wind up at my parent's home I cannot believe the idiocy that's on the TV. Ball game is on? They've made sure it's impossible that a single frame of the feed does not show at least one advertisement, whether "splashed" over the video or covering every square inch of the location they're broadcasting.
"Television" is officially dead to me, but I get that a lot of people still watch it. What I don't understand is WHY they do.
