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.

This is so, but LLM's are the ~~only~~ most visible public facing ones and they're the dumbshit technology that every company on Earth is now trying to shoehorn into every product. They're what people see, interact with, and get pissed off by.
Learning neural nets are good for various specific types of pattern recognition tasks, but trying to be an electronic butler who answers your questions ain't one of them and it never will be.
Well, okay, they're the mainly public facing ones. Gemini, GPT, Copilot, whatever the hell Musk's one is, Grok? All of that bullshit is just LLM's, the ones nobody asked for and nobody wants. That's what everyone is complaining about.
