Lutris is AI slop now

"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.
Turns out GloriousEggroll who is best known for Nobara and GE-Proton is defending this shit as well.

what a moronic take :(
Come on, is there anything that's safe?!
Nobody has managed to stuff an LLMbecile into my fountain (or dip) pens yet. Not even into my ballpoint pens. Nor pencils, even the fancy schmancy "eternal" pencils I have.
Nobody has manged to jam an LLMbecile into any of my notebooks, neither the cheap-and-nasty ring-bound ones nor the home-made, home-bound ones I played with making for a while.
Nobody has found a way to cram an LLMbecile into my books, my playing cards, even my (tabletop) RPGs and board games.
Seems like loads of things are safe. Just not computers.
It's really hard to argue against that final paragraph though for real. These are free time projects that people spend time on for the benefit of others. I dunno. Food for thought?
Actually you can refute that argument since the main dev defends Anthropic as a good guy compared to other AI companies. As we know Claude being used by Pentagon in the war with Iran. But shouldn't use that, it will drag into unnecessary argument war, since they have set in mind to use AI generated-code.
And that leaves us with no choice but to use alternatives, as they have removed AI co-authorship.
It's not a good situation right now, definitely. I do not condones using AI at all, but I definitely understand why people tend to resort to it if they have limited time and want to spend it on other things but still want to give their time and effort for free to the community.
Hiding it from the community though? Shitty behavior.
Yes the mere existence of slop machines is totally forcing those developers to shit all over their painstakingly crafted creations and deliberately hiding it. Really hard to argue with that.
If its such a bother to create something without supporting these fascist enabling and thieving cunts that are all AI companies, maybe they should consider not doing anything at all.
I don't think we read the same final paragraph lol. But I agree with your sentiment to a certain degree, definitely.
This kind of thinking is what makes billionaires who back AI companies to keep increasing their investments in AI Capex, while leaving others with nothing but increasingly expensive parts and damaged environments.
oh yes. i caught their comment on github about this already.
if i had the time i'd fork this and block AI contributions outright. slop certainly doesn't belong in something that allows us linux users to play something that's windows exclusive, cause lord knows what it'll break.
"We live in a capitalist hellscape so why bother to struggle against it" isn't a completely unreasonable take. Too bad, though.
Can't win a fight if you don't fight.
Also standing together is the only way to win such a fight as one against the hellscape we're facing.
