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.

Man, I do appreciate the sentiment, but I'm an AI-agnostic guy poking at the Fuck AI community to argue about nuance. You are 100% not to blame for any hate coming my way.

Which is relatively little, for the record, because this is still Fedi and most people here are somewhere between civilized and quite nice.

I genuinely don't have a good idea of what they'll try to do and how. There's certainly been this thing where any machine learning tool at all gets hate now, regardless of whether it's being used to resolve pictures of black holes, restore old movies or... whatever people do with generative AI in their day to day. People are mostly out to have a good ole dogpile because it's a feel-good angle of anticorporate activism you can do at home.

And I get it, I'm just too much of a contrarian to throw babies out with the bathwater when you can have a spirited discussion that leads nowhere instead. Glad it had any positive impact on anybody at all, honestly.
