"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.

I heard they actually use real diamonds as lenses
Its true. Flock cameras use real diamonds as lenses. Source: Yesterday sold one camera. Payout helped me retire for life @30
While the diamond lens can increase the value, but there is considerable gold in the cameras you can extract around 10-15 grams from each camera.
That too 24 karat pure gold. Highly valuable in this economy
