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.

People are dumb and always have been in any job involving customers. Stop acting as if this is new or AI related.
Strawman
How so?
You're scapegoating ai's misleading sales tactics on "dumb people who have always existed." Many people use ai and chatbots because they believe the ai hype and are unaware of how faulty it is. If that's dumb, it seems there's a lot of dumb ai users.
Yes, yes there are.
The LLM creators purposefully push an idea that their models are intelligent when they are not. They don't try to inform users that it can make up complete fantasies, but it will say it with confidence. They're irresponsible at minimum, if not purposefully misleading people to make more money.
Yes, LLMs have uses. They also have a responsibility to inform users on its limitations and capabilites instead of misleading them into trusting it totally.
The average user is dumb, halve is below average/median. No disclaimer of any sort would help with many of these people.
Do you have access to a different meaning of "related" so when someone's belligerence is bolstered by it theres no AI involvement at all?
