My employer is in full on AI psychosis, they have opened op Copilot Pro to every employee, and have asked everyone to dedicate a few work hours every week for nothing but AI.
I hate it.
We are removing skills and knowledge and replacing them with a statistics driver chatbot.
I can’t wait for the trough of disillusionment to arrive and pour some sanity into the hype.
I have accepted that AI won’t go away even after a crash, but it needs to be treated as a another tool, not as a replacement of an actual staff member.
We can’t afford to grow dependent on AI, neither financially nor mentally.
In these last four or so years we have had AI (ChatGPT, Copilot, etc…) we have already started seeing a decline in skills and knowledge in the workforce, and without those skills and knowledge we can’t evaluate the responses we get from AI, the moment we completely loose that ability, it is over.
I resist AI because I like understanding the stuff I create, and I can’t really do that without coding myself.
I wonder what would happen if you used an AI during dedicated AI time to get it to explain why humans are essential and AI is a bad replacement for them. Do they audit your chats? Could be funny. Or you could get fired. Idk.
Eh, so far I am just ignoring it, I have a lot of work and don’t have time to try and get a statics powered chatbot to try and help me.
I tried one time I wanted it to compare two lists and give me a list of differences, I spent an hour trying to get it to understand what the lists were and their context, then I just did it my self.
I like scripting, it would probably have been faster to just write a powershell script to do it for me and have full knowledge of what the script did, than to deal with the AI.
I think I just realized something…
There are so many people lacking basic coding skills that have so many tasks that could be automated that once they don’t think they have to learn coding to automate, that they just rush toward AI as fast as possible.
2: Set up a script to take one random line from one random article and add, “I just read <insert quote here>. Can you please write me a 5-page essay explaining that in as much detail as possible?” to it, and then submit that into the AI prompt. Set it to automatically repeat that process every time the AI finishes responding.
3: Kick back and relax.
4: Impress your boss with your high AI usage statistics.

“Nothing but AI”… what does that even mean lol
Like researching AI? Screwing around with ChatGPT? Or just offloading your entire workload one day a week?
This is such a poor business model lol, I’d just secretly spend the time on one of those AI “gf” porn bot websites haha
Get two ai to just talk to each other while you browse lemmy.
1: Download the text of English Wikipedia

Don’t forget to spawn a few expert subagents to verify the response from multiple points of view.
Keep burning through your token allocation, asking for more. Get promoted. Profit.
Now you’re tokenmaxxing!
That’s disgusting! What websites are these? Just so I know which ones to avoid?
aren’t you trying to leave and get a better job?
Have you seen the job market lately?
the job marking is great in lots of sectors. and shitty in others.
it is not generally awful right now. it’s just bad for tech workers.
It’s pretty bad for non tech workers too
