    where’s all the small mom and pop AI that’s doing good? where’s ANY AI that’s doing good?

    Stable Diffusion has been a thing for a while now. There are tons of models people have trained and uploaded to HuggingFace so you can just download and experiment with them on reasonably equipped consumer hardware. So there’s plenty of “mom and pop AI” if you know where to look for it. Whether people know/use these or rely on oligarch tech is a different discussion.

    I think we need to separate our judgement of the tech from our judgement of the datacentre owners. Spelled out, that means: Altman, Nadella, Pichai and all the others do deserve the ire of the public. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and Grok do deserve the hate they’re getting. We should not, however, forget that “AI”, or machine learning, does exist outside the clutches of the Epstein class, and, if liberated, can do more than just enrich the rich.

      that’s doing good?

      stable diffusion is garbage. if there were any great accomplishments by this stuff they’d be waving it in our faces 24/7 and it simply isn’t there.

      and people like you, who conflate LLMs and AI aren’t doing us any favors. Call me back when cringely’s non-hallucination tech is working.

      libertated, bwahaha, sure thing bud

        LLMs are a type of AI. Call me back once you know what you’re talking about and willing to contribute more than polemics.

          Call me back once

          get fucked, I wouldn’t waste a nickel calling your ignorant ass. you think roided up chatbots are actual AI. And you have yet to explain the great accomplishments this shitware has produced, aside from driving up the costs of all computing components, undressing little kids, talking teens into suicide, and being so fuckin cringe that only the most desperate, sad souls will stan for it.

          like you.
