I'm God's most powerful anti-AI hater and have the capacity for morality so this ain't it folks
If AI is so fucking transformative why do we need to be compelled to use it
Hey are we even breaking even? Like all the devs I talk to about it go "yeah it's ok but you spend about as much time fixing what it gives you as you would writing it yourself". Can you imagine the business acumen it takes to have your devs take as much time as usual but also pay OpenAI a royalty for use of their text extrusion machine? And having it assist the HR department? Legal? All it's good for is finding a polite way to tell someone they're fired or communicate absolutely nothing behind sixty layers of corporate executive jargon.
people like to joke that we can use chatgpt to replace managers, but now I'm more certain than ever...
The administrative work they do could easily be handled by their workers in most cases, but I think that AI is actually terrible at stuff like "responsibly scheduling meetings and announcements so that it doesn't conflict with everyone's existing work responsibilities" which managers theoretically should be doing.
I have never once had a manager that didn't try to offload their "job" onto me.
"Oh we're going to need you to ensure coverage while you're off" motherfucker that's literally YOUR "job"
you can replace most managers with a spreadsheet and a little scripting, there's no reason to use an LLM
I fully agree
