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.

We actually do use Generative Pre-trained Transformers as the base for a lot of our tech. So yes they are GPTs.
And even if they werent GPTs this is a post saying all AI is bad and how there is literally no exceptions to that.
Again with the conflation. They clearly mean GPTs and LLMs from the context they provide, they just don't have another name for it, mostly because people like you like to pretend that AI is shit like chatGPT when it benefits you, and regular machine learning is AI when it benefits you.
And no, GPTs are not needed, nor used, as a base for most of the useful tech, because anyone with any sense in this industry knows that good models and carefully curated training data gets you more accurate, reliable results than large amounts of shit data.
Our whole tech stack is built off of GPTs. They are just a tool, use it badly and you grt AI slop, use it well and you can save peoples lives.
As I said, anyone with sense.
