Most of common information is usually wrong. When programmers gaslight themselves into using it, the code is almost always wrong. Artists are all pissed, because both Nvidia and "Open"AI trained their data on hundreds of terabytes of stolen data too.
The only ones still satisfied with this, are the top 0.01% billionaires, who continue selling these products to companies, who in turn buy this only because of peer pressure
^^^^^ 🛎️ 🛎️ 🛎️ This! Anything but forever-growth is a failure, and the hype train must roll forward… even if the tracks it’s riding on are bubble gum and wishes.
Yes, the companies have a reputation to protect, but it’s also just a standard hype-cycle. If you pay attention to tech history these things always go in cycles like this.
Whether the tech is actually useful or not doesn’t actually matter. What matters is whether you can convince investors to fork over the cash with a shiny presentation.
The tech industry has basically habituated to surviving on selling us bullshit through hype cycles. I think it’s become dependent on them.
Absolutely. We got so much crap from the markets and customers because “it’s 2024 and you still don’t have AI in your product”. So we threw in an integration to a local LLM to please them and keep them from leaving to our inferior-in-every-other-way-but-have-AI competitors.
Following her departure, Google held a forum to discuss experiences with racism at the company, and employees reported to NBC News that half of it was spent discrediting Gebru, which they took as the company making an example of her for speaking out. The forum was followed up with a group psychotherapy session for Google’s Black employees with a licensed therapist, which the employees said was dismissive
It’s a real fucking laugh. It seems Google’s go to response to discrimination is to hire psychs to calm it’s employees. Real cyberpunk corpo shit. “Let’s fix your thinking.”
When will the AI slop end?

This makes so much sense.
I always thought, surely their higher ups must know this is utter garbage?
They do but it’s just to scam investors.

Seriously. I cannot wait for the hype about these stochastic parrots to die.
Stochastic parrots is an excellent phrase.
Google fired a co-inventor of it.
