"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.

This is very confusing. AI also isn't technological progress, just like how leaded gasoline and Flexplay wasn't technological progress.

It is a technology that makes a skilled process easier than it has ever been.

Is a calculator not technological progress?

Is a CNC machine not technological progress?

There is no valid argument that AI image generation is not a form of technological progress. What took an artist a half hour or a day takes an image generator minutes.
