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.

Winners will rise from the eventual ashes, but what then? I still don't see how they make a profit, let alone recoup their outlay. Even large corporate customers will eventually drop AI.
Business has seen failure after failure to reap real benefits. At some point the boards of directors will take it out on the CEOs, ousting any that went all in on AI. I don't think that's wish fulfillment. CEOs have been kicked to the curb for far less than fucking up their workforce and lighting money on fire.
Anyway, AI expenditures are propping up our economy, in America at least. Consider the coming crash along with Republican's idiot tariffs and other boolshit that has turned away even our closest allies, this crash is going to make the dotcom bubble and 2008 look like small beer.
