I see a ton of articles posted here about how AI sucks, but this is a big, dedicated community. I feel like there's more to do than just read the news. What can we do as members of Fuck AI to protest against this bullshit? What are you guys already doing individually?

Badmouth it behind its back. It's the only real thing that I got left to feel. Woops, I accidentally started singing.

But in all seriousness, what I am doing is to question people when they make it apparent that they blindly use LLMs. I ask questions such as

Is there any cognitive/intellectual/emotional downside to getting an answer to your question in a heartbeat?
How does that smart little device work behind the scenes? Is it a computer? (Leading question into number 3.)
How do the data centers affect local populations? The environment?
Why is it "free" of cost to you?
Etc.

"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.
