AI has all the popularity of the spoiled vaping neighbor kid and his new drone.
Businesses love it because it will vaporize the workforce. Consumers hate it because they know they're going to get a severely degraded experience in return.
and tech workers have mixed feelings about it, because it's made their job 10x easier whilst making them 10x more expendable
What? No it hasn’t.
Which part of my statement are you objecting to. I can definitely say the first part is true (N=20), and say the second part is somewhat true and growing (N=5), from my own personal observations of friends, family, and colleagues.
found the AI
guess I found the new "ok, boomer" blanket dismissal phrase.... this will be a fun decade
Fuck Off Shillbot 9000
There are impressionable youths for you to lie to elsewhere
...do you even know what a shill is? God, dishing out insults that don't even make sense...
I'm flattered you robot scum consider us God. At least part of you knows your place.
Just sit back, and consider what you're writing. Check that it makes any legible sense, and most of all just take a moment to consider why your tone is so disparaging to someone you don't even know.
Also, just to take your comment at face value (because maybe you're just a teen still learning how to form arguments): if you truly do fear a robot uprising to the degree that you need to insult those you perceive as robots, how do you think you will fare when an actual robot uprising occurs?
Or conversely: if you denigrate everyone you disagree with as being nothing more than robots and elevate yourself to Godhood status in contrast, then what does that actually say about the fragility of your ego when faced with mere robots?
They always forget to code in the quit for these fuckers. Most humans would give up after two or three replies that were complete resignation from the conversation and purely insults.
Masochist fucking robots.
Tell me about it
All you get is a base to work with, i have never had a working solution out of there. They tend to create commands and parameters which aren't existing just because it would be logical, it works like a naive brain.
It is a glorified Google search and won't replace any tech workers for quite some time, or never. I would compare it with a calculator for techies, if you have no idea what you're doing you won't get anything out of it.
Sometimes a base is all you need though. I have colleagues whose job it is to write trainings based on tool workflows, and this is something that AI can do right now, flawlessly
True, but the point ist that it's worthless without a person
"doch!"
