AI absolutist notes of the morning:

Libre Solutions Network: We will come to regret our every use of AI.

Artemis @artemis@dice.camp

I suppose if you are being pressured to use AI at work, one thing you could do is send HR articles/studies on AI psychosis & ask "does [company name] accept liability for any mental harm that may occur from AI use?"

Before you touch any of the AI tools they want you to use, ask them to put in writing that the company is aware of the concerns about mental harm from AI use but is asking you to use it anyway. Ask to put a note in your employee file saying that you objected to using it.

Mario Munuz Fediverse thread about how the stories about the future of AI make no sense, but lemme see if I can figure out a story that does make sense: Investors were initially sold on the notion of a singularity sort of event that would lead to a single vendor owning the space. That's no longer a story that works (at least for people like me), but the remnants and sunk costs are enough that that's how everyone is approaching future spending.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
