This is why the aitechbrodude will never understand opposition to AI. They don't understand anything of substance.

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.

Same thing with whatshisface that runs Microsoft.
There was an article recently about how he "enjoys podcasts"... by feeding the transcript of the podcast into the AI, letting it summarise it, and having a conversation with the AI about the podcast on his commute to work.
Comically missing the point that a podcast is a performative medium; the presenter(s) telling you the story is a part of the artform, which you've just lost. Turn off tech-bro brain, just for a minute, and actually engage in the product as it was intended.
It just boggles the mind, do they really think they've stumbled on some sort of secret the rest of us have been sleeping on?
I think thats the whole thing people love about AI, it was the same with the expensive pictures. Tech lads thinking they were early with the secret sauce no one had found. The boys just wanna feel like they are the smart ones for once.
Expensive pictures?
Probably NFTs
Ah. Right. I forgot those were a thing once.
Apologies, I couldn't think of the word but yes, NFTs.
