Quoting from the CEO

I think that people who are still referring to all AI-generated content as AI slop are probably lazy luddites

We believe that in the near future half the people on the planet will be AI

    These guys really need to talk to tape recorder for a few minutes and play it back. This is a new level of stupid.

      Not stupid necessarily, but profoundly misanthropic.

      I have never talked to or read from an AI shill who did not have a severely depressing view on humanity, with arguments being a variation of “oh yeah, LLMs are just parrots but so are we/so are most people”, and “comprehension is just pattern matching anyways”.

      Which is really darkly hilarious in a way, because if you think of older, now clichéed, sci fi stories, then treating a machine capable of feelings and comprehension as a human rather than a tool is the human thing to do. But these people are so backwards that

      1. They rob us of humanity to put us on the same level as AI.
      2. They still treat the LLMs (which should now be human) as tools and therefore deny them of humanity too.

        comprehension is just pattern matching anyways

        Anyone who claims to know what intelligence actually is at a fundamental level must possess a very artificial kind of intelligence themselves.

        Perhaps unsurprisingly, a lot of the people who call their political opponents “NPCs” and fantasize about replacing women with android sexbots have become AI shills (or AI doomers) in this year of our Lord 2025.

        Even if they’re correct, how does that justify the insane expenditure of resources used to make a different parrot?
