"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.

Windows does that automatically. The software is part of the LG monitor driver and is distributed through Microsoft's automatic driver setup infrastructure.
There's an obscure GPO that can prevent Windows from auto-installing "related files" but of course most people don't know it exists or that it's yet another core OS feature you have to turn off to use Windows in peace.

Handjob? Never seen that tag before...
It means 'Hey Jude". You have to take a sad song and make it better.
Well a hand job can make most feel better too, at least for a short while.
“I turned it off but it got turned on again during the next update.” There is no peace. To use Windows is to constantly be at war.

That’s the part I’m confused by. Why does a non touchscreen monitor even need a driver? It should work fine before windows is even in the picture?
Might be glorified ICC profiles. Normally EDID should cover most bases already but I can see how config files might improve matters.
Of course there is no justification for adding a dropper for unwanted programs.
