just called ai "the mediocrity machine" in a meeting and a tech bro is twitching so hard he can't even plug this into the mediocrity machine so it can tell him how to respond
@ElleGray many of u taking now days like u are in the programming the machine with glitches and on off switches vireses that can overwelm u change who n what u are
@ElleGray that’s still a positive take. Most of the internet is filled with low-grade bullshit — just not too bad to make money — and this is what AI plagiarizes.
@ElleGray Oh, good for you. Do keep it up.
This report "Disruptions on the horizon" by the Canadian Government lists "People not knowing what's true or false" as an imminent threat to the nation. Also "AI develops rapidly and its usage becomes pervasive. Society cannot keep up, and people do not widely understand where and how it is being used."
@ElleGray I have trouble wrapping my head around the mindset of a person proudly proclaiming their complete reliance on AI. I’m always thinking, “bro, this didn’t exist a year ago, what have you been doing up until now? Do you really want to broadcast that you’re useless?”
Use AI as a tool, sure. But if that’s all a person has in their toolbelt, 😬.
@ElleGray as someone who loves IT and has worked on it for almost 30 years, I know my colleagues see me as a "tech bro".
Nothing further from the truth!! As I usually say "I've worked as a programmer, I know the shit they would like me to put there, I wouldn't touch it with a six feet pole"
