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.

It's okay to hate on the "AI" hype train but it does yourself a disservice to completely ignore the places where it's better than current alternatives. You obviously haven't used it for these tasks because to say it hallucinates most of the time is just factually wrong. The ability to have a direct conversation with it to get ideas and explanations makes it such a powerful tool for the topics I brought up.
Also if you think LLMs lie most of the time but then say the things you find on the internet are 100% true and factual. My brother, you need to take a step back.
I'm not ignoring anything, and in fact the only stance so far against my argument is to ignore the reasons I gave. A real pot to the kettle moment.
You say that things on the internet aren't 100% factual? Okay, now realize THAT is the data that the LLMs are trained on. So 85% accurate to THAT is still WORSE.
