Hyperbole or just rage bait?
- happytoexplain 3mo agoI think it's pretty obvious that genAI is a very smart technology in terms of the implementation, but a dumb technology in that enables devastatingly dumb outcomes. It also enables very smart outcomes, but they are overshadowed by the misery and visibility of the dumb outcomes. Like crypto, but with way more legitimate uses and a wider array of outcomes. And by "outcome" I mean holistically - not the literal output of a model.
- josefritzishere 3mo agoMaybe a smidge dramatic? What I'm seeing is the most money-losing technology being shoe-horned into virtually every system with little to no benefit, but definitely producing a more dystopian future in terms of unemployment and the environment. But even AI fans expect a market correction because they can't hemorrhage cash forever. So in that context, watching employers hire AI-evangelists to force workers to use AI seems even more absurd.
