[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the people who claim it's a fad probably don't want to learn how to use it to make them more efficient and thus pretend it's a useless tool that has no applicability for anyone anywhere.

Anybody who has used these models in anything more than a cursory capacity understands why it's such a big deal and that these minor complaints that early models hallucinate or you don't like their tone are really missing the point[/quote]

This is what a cult member sounds like.

I've tried using it in my job and it's totally useless.  I have coworkers who use it and it is making their work product worse than useless.  [/quote]

NP.  Lol, I recently listened to an HR podcast by a thought leader who is pretty cutting edge with computerized HR (Hebba Youssef).  She raised the issue of what happens when employees use AI to draft their performance self-evaluations and managers also use AI to draft the employees' performance review.  What you're ending up with is a very artificial performance conversation couched in neutralized, conventional language, basically between two bots.

I know a lot of people don't like to write these kind of documents, but theoretically the point is to have a meaningful dialogue.  The time saved may indeed be saved but using AI may even be detrimental to the entire purpose of the written performance review exercise.

I find that funny to think about.

So far I see only modest uses for AI in my white collar job.  I see that it can do some 
work today but I think it will only augment my work.

People who can't write for $hit seem to love AI, so in that sense maybe it is helping.  But I knew what they meant before they put "💄  on a 🐖 ".

I think AI writing and light data analysis will be a tool just like the Internet was when it got rolling for in-office use in 1994.  The Internet hasn't put me out of a job yet, and if you took it away it would only modestly impact my productivity.

If you don't want a human in the middle of my work process, you could just stop doing it.  That is a valid option.  I could be afraid of that but I'd prefer to worry about climate change and nuclear war instead.

I'm sure AI could make my points above into a punchier summary but why bother...are you on DCUM to listen to real people or to grade writing stylistics?[/quote]
