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.

Those are the actual reasons why “AI” is terrible.

My main problem with it is how confidently incorrect it constantly is, and the fact that the media ignores this completely and pushes this "AI is smart" shit to the point where the average person doesn't understand that LLMs are just glorified autocomplete.

You just perfectly described the average redditor. And I think that's at the heart of it. How shallow people have become that it's even a competition.

Of course I'm joking. The average redditor is not much different from the average lemming, and people have always been morons. Like you are saying, people not realizing it's just glorified autocomplete. And you "bag of water" not realizing that you're making a category error.
