"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.

He is not a programmer, he's actually into PR.
And Ludic, the guy he had on, said exactly the opposite.
AI is very unhelpful because it excites the terrible customers you don't want to deal with, and puts off the good ones you would have been happy with.
Either way it ends the possibility of a fruitful exchange of Information.
Listen to the whole thing. It's in there a good deal after your bit.
