    Look- as a person who does use AI for work, I can say that AI is peak AI theater. It’s useful for a handful of stuff, but the rest is parlor tricks to help the big labs raise more money.

      I live in a very tech-forward city. Was talking with some friends from Google and Cisco last night. One was talking about their KPIs for mandatory AI use and how coworkers are sharing internally new associated vulnerabilities every day. The other was the one responsible for pushing it and simultaneously talking about how much damage it was doing to the company. 😂

      • The mandatory ai isn’t to make the employees faster or more efficient its to get all the data of u correcting the ai in doing ur job. Same reason I run !news_summary@hilariouschaos.com that’s not just to provide news summaries that’s mainly to get the data of people correcting its mistakes which I can all feed in as a signal for making my bot better at trading decisions. Lemmy hating on ai is really useful it provides one of the last bastions where I can get a real human in the loop. And I’m sure u don’t agree with me doing that but feel free to complain about it because as we know all publicity is good publicity.
