    LOLLLLLLLL that’s like a third of the US population. Probably half of the number currently employed. There’s no way in hell this useless garbage will take 1/3 to 1/2 of all jobs. Companies that do this will go out of business fast.

      And these 1/3 are perfect horde for fascist brainwashing and consolidate the power of techno-fascists. The fascists will tell the jobless that immigrants took their jobs and not robots.

      You can tell how competent someone is at something by how good they think AI is at that thing.

        This is so true.

        I recently had a colleague - ignorant of this perspective - give a training presentation on using AI to update a kind of bullshit job useless document.

        Dozens of peers attended their presentation. They went on demonstrating relatively mindless prompt inputting for 40 minutes.

        I keep remembering just how many people they shared their AI enthusiasm with.

        I think they may honestly believe that AI has democratized the workplace, and that they will vibe code their way to successful startup CEO-ship in a year.

          I also find it interesting how whenever I’ve expressed the above sentiment either here or on the Other Place, the up/downvote ratios seem to vary massively depending on the tech-bro quotient of the group. I’m mildly surprised to see it go entirely positive in a community called “technology”.
