Generative AI

I built this little static website generator using gpt4all. It’s not gonna replace anyone’s job or anything, but it was a fun little gen ai project.

The past few months have launched generative AI models into the public eye, and everyone seems to have a take on it. Generative AI models such as large language models (LLMs) and AI art generators consume vast amounts of aggregated content, determine similarities between that content, and, when prompted, produce statistically likely, plausible-seeming output.

The current state of generative AI is environmentally disastrous and built on the backbone of labor exploitation, particularly in the global south. Large language models' disregard for the truth is, at this point, well-documented.

Technology is not neutral. Leveraging and normalizing generative AI is not a neutral act.
