MTG was stupid for initially saying it, but it’s clear she isn’t alone.

Is this some kind of discrimination or a racist post?

CuttingBoard OP ,

No, it’s a joke and I’m Jewish.

Hmm that’s at least extremely inappropriate in this community, especially now.

Based purely from their comment yesterday I would say it’s ironic.

Maybe the central problem is racing to put other people out of work period, regardless of who they are. Maybe putting people out of work is not a net benefit for society, it’s actually negative in the long run, and only truly a benefit for shareholders. They don’t need any more of those at the expense of the working class.

mindbleach ,

Ideally, nobody should have to work.

The problem is that labor-saving technology is never permitted to save labor. We make those displaced laborers go do other shit.

LwL ,

It should be a net benefit for society. Any system in which it isn’t is a very flawed system. Like most of the world right now.

It's the marketing department that should really be worried.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Like the C level isn’t the marketing department

And to be fair, like always, good marketing is genius stuff.

But it also feels rare. I suspect precisely because C-suite and upper management love to mess with it, so the rote marketing approach gets normalized, which in turn drives all the decent marketing people away.

given that LLMs and gen AIs are great at talking bullshit and creating presentations, one is a more realistic expectation than the other

I’ll believe AI can replace engineers when I see NVIDIA firing them. But like the graphic says, the manager’s job seems a lot easier to replace instead.

redcalcium , to programmerhumor in AI layoffs

If we fire all developers and allow AIs to program themselves, the AIs are going to commit virtual seppuku after a few days.

MajorHavoc ,

AIs are going to commit virtual seppuku after a few days.

Yes. And that’s our best case scenario. Worst case is a wildly incompetent, but still effective form of SkyNet.

tastysnacks ,

Can we build an AI manager that just keeps asking for different shades of red?

Evotech , to programmerhumor in AI layoffs

Owners: with AI we can finally get rid of everyone

palordrolap , to programmerhumor in AI layoffs

Managers might not like people but they don't want to get rid of them. There's no cheap thrill from micromanaging an AI.

100,000% this - money or even utility seems to not be everything, compared to feeling self-importance

MindTraveller ,

Is a CEO a manager?

palordrolap ,

Depends on the size of the company.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

Yes. In big established companies they are managing managers.

In smaller companies, no

Restaldt ,

In bigger company’s C levels manage VPs who manage directors who manage managers

It’s management alll the way down

nova_ad_vitum ,

Plus it’s harder to pass the buck and blame an AI for your screw ups. It would be perceived, as the kids say, as a skills issue.

stanka , to programmerhumor in AI layoffs

Could probably replace managers with AI, but being trained on most managers would mean it would be equally bad at its job.

I think the most likely is for the artists jobs to go away as art doesn’t have to be exact, but code does.

Crowds contribuitions are what they know it will always work.

There will be enough ignorant and people lacking basic knowledge of the devices they use (or install in their homes) that will eventually give up everyones data/identity/etc.

So even if you do everything perfect and have the reaources in terms of concealing your privacy or (what remained of it) the first time you meet your girlfriend and have dinner along with her iPhone all your work vanishes in a microsecond.

This is most frustrating to people who know what i’m talking about!

What you can do? Make people responsible, teach them!

BTW: I’m offering part of my little time to anyone who wants to better understand what happens with and in their “smartphone”. Just drop a question and will try to answer to the best of my abilities. Monero accepted 🙂

They’ve already got you if you’ve been to an airport and, depending on where you live, protest, large sporting event or just walked down a street with CCTV cameras

lightnsfw ,

Yeah but there’s no reason to make it easy for them. Every picture of you they don’t have is one less to add to their data.

xilona ,

I’m glad at least some people still think straight! Thanks mate!

grrgyle , to memes in Smile!

Dang. Yeah I don’t feel good about putting pictures online anymore for this reason

Instructions Unclear: Took steroids, turned off brain; locked in never ending combat with cat.

hydroptic OP ,

No the instructions were pretty clear, this is on you. Did you maybe turn off your brain before reading the instructions?

In any case, please send cat pictures.

I have been prescribed steroids since I was a kid. That is the benefit of having asthma.
