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.

My work thinks theyre being forward thinking by shoving ai into everything. Not that we are forced to use it but we are encouraged to. Outside of using it to convert a screenshot to text (not even ai...thats just ocr) I haven't had much use for it since it's wrong a lot. Its pretty useless for the type of one off work I do as well. We are supposed to share any "wins" we've had but I'd sooner they stop paying a huge subscription to Sammy A.

On one occasion I ran into a problem that took me weeks to solve. I had exhausted all kinds of support already, so people (including my boss) suggested to try ChatGPT. I had a difficult time to explain to them that this simply would be no help.

In the end I fixed this myself with reading thousands of helpdesk articles and at one point drawing the right conclusion, but it was so dependent on local variables that an LLM would not have been able to find a solution here.
