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.

The Turing test is not a valid determiner because the thought process behind it is 80 years out of date. Intelligence has to be capable of actually processing data on its own without external sources to draw from. Otherwise it's just copying and pasting in approximation of language and art. See article below:

As the article states, these things should be called GANs but that doesn't sound as sexy as AI.
This goes for Stable Diffusion as well as every other generative art program in existence.

It's all hype in order to get investment dollars. These will never become AGI or anything close. They don't "think", they simply search their databases based on inputs and then output the closest approximation of what the user is asking for. It's why AI art always looks wonky and LLMs output made up garbage.
