AI is literally just legalized theft of other people’s work. It won’t credit them to any capacity.
Also, whilst it is adding some productivity, it’s also being used by absolute idiots who have no idea what they’re doing spreading bad info and causing other people more work.
Every idiot is typing everything into chatgpt, getting a bad answer which is obvious to anyone half trained and then promoting it like it’s correct just because AI said it
The plague of work chats now:
Here’s what ChatGPT/copilot had to say:
People can ask for themselves, you answering that way adds no value. Just say you don’t know.
In group chats, keep your mouth shut and let people that actually know answer. Don’t drown out the actual expert answers.
And holy hell the ones that will die on the hill that they are right because chatgpt agreed with them even when they are totally wrong…
No, AI companies don’t “have a PR problem”
They are the problem. It’s in their bones. Harm is their business model. It is not fixable. This is not a case of handing out enough pizza and smiling harder.
If anything, it’s the other way around: we have an AI-company PR problem. Media outlets can’t stop themselves from presenting interviews with CEOs of AI companies as some sort of reliable source for how incredible AI really is if we would only spend more money locking ourselves into AI-driven workflows.
TL;DR the umbrella-selling weatherman keeps predicting that rain is on the way
Isn’t archive.is blocked because they injected ddos scripts in their visitors browsers?
Yes and modified articles without letting users know.
I’ve never heard of either of these things. Do you have sources?
Wikipedia has since banned them as a source.
Just ask who got the gains in the last industrial revolution and who got to live in the slums, and how they plan to do things differently now.
Hard disagree. We aren’t hating AI and it’s users nearly enough.
Not a fan of the framing of the question, but…
“Some version of AI is inevitable” said the CEO of an AI company
… This insight was very novel, thank you Axios
It’s hilarious to me that news companies keep interviewing AI companies to ask them if they think AI is all hype. What kind of answer do they expect?
“Yeah, this is just smoke and mirrors, and I’m just trying to make a ton of money before the bubble pops.” Bruh, no CEO is gonna be honest about that.
We will accept spell checkers.
Which isn’t wrong per se, but maybe they don’t realize (or don’t want to) that we’d prefer useful AI, not the “burn the world and turn it into money” kind.
Well, yeah, AI is mostly garbage. Fuck it. Fuck the people pushing it.
Garbage is a harsh word. Technically fascinating and surely has its applications. “Talking” with bots surely isn’t a good one. Using it for important stuff? Surely ain’t it either.
Letting it sum up some 5838292 pages of a boring contract to get a slight oversight? Helpful. Relying on it? Dumb.
Getting some translation that can make sense? Helpful. Betting your life on it? Dumb.
Letting then quickly throw a prototype at you in 2 mins that would’ve taken you 2hours? Helpful. Just deploy it to 100 machines without manually checking? Dumb.
Don’t blame the tool, blame the user 😁

I compare it to snapshot tests a lot. They’re similarly constrained by “good if used wisely” but most people don’t do that. It’s easier to use them extensively. That’s just how people are. They do the easy thing
Hehe, yeah sure. Easy is awesome. I see why people use those bots for everything. You can get shoulder-pats for even the dumbest shit opinion you throw at them. And “evidence” too. I would put a smiley here because it sounds funny and absurd to me, but sadly it ain’t funny.
People shouldn’t be allowed to use “AI” until they got a license for it. Like cars.
