"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.

At least in Georgia. I never heard anyone use "Bubba" unless they were literally referring to someone by that name. I only have heard people from non southern states use it.
In the South, when someone is an idiot we don't really have a name for them. You usually just add a "bless their heart" when referring to them.
I heard it plenty when I lived in South Carolina. It didn't imply stupidity, it implied a blue collar guy with a beer at a boat launch or tailgating a college game. It was also a generic nickname sort of like "cuz" was in Alabama.
No, you're right. It's kind of flexible. Maybe I misunderstood the initial comment. I've heard people from outside the south use "bubba" as a way to refer to uneducated white southerners.
I don't know what a Jay Mainer is, and I guess trying to compare it to another idiosyncratic regional stereotype was not the play.
