Hate these Ava ads, glad to see my people in San Francisco feel the same way.

I do love how the clone wars term Clanker has become mainstream for referring to AI

[-] Catoblepas 22 points 4 days ago

TIL clanker comes from Star Wars.

Star Wars definitely popularized it, but it's been floating around in science fiction for a long time. https://sfdictionary.com/view/3048/clanker

Huh TIL. I never heard it used to describe bots before Clone Wars

"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.
