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.

And this absolutely will not change the course of AI investment whatsoever because it still driving a huge amount of profit.

The only thing that will finally change the course of AI investment is when the bubble finally burst which will cause the collapse of our economy because, by that point, so much money will have been invested in it. There will be no other possible result.

And why? Because these assholes only care about one thing: short term results at any cost.

We're not there yet. Remember, tech is not the whole of the economy. The recent tech layoffs have had Silicon Valley screaming, "The sky is falling!!" and the rest of the planet going "huh? You guys hear something? Must've been a fly"
