    My manager asked ChatGPT about a difficult situation I was involved in for some advice to know of she was right or wrong to tell me I lacked judgement.

    She basically asked an AI for her own judgement.

    Who’s lacking judgement exactly?

    Turns out she was wrong.

      What’s even worse: those chatbots generally agree with the user. Deferring judgement like that sure is one way to do what you wanted to do anyway.

      My previous boss (the CIO) began using AI back in May of last year in a desperate attempt to not get fired. He had spearheaded a shift to a SaaS product that ended up costing us 200x more than our in house solution and was in hot water for that. Additionally a new COO was about to be hired who was previously a CIO and might figure out that he didn’t really know anything.

      Since he had basically bullshitted his way into the position I think he turned to a bullshit engine to assist him in saving himself. Ultimately his efforts were futile and he was let go.

      The new COO appears to be just as enthralled to AI… She was in my office the other day asking me questions about our MDM, feeding my answers into copilot, and then asking my follow up questions that it gave her.

      Beautiful, maybe I should get an mba.

    This works well with my AI-as-shackles theory. I’m assuming the rich will use AI to enslave us, and this article makes that scenario seem much easier for them to achieve.

      the shackles are already in the heads of the people. if you can’t think for yourself then llm isnt much different from your regular propaganda from tv or papers, except it functions better.

      Llm is tool for control.

        Sorry I couldn’t read this comment, I was busy binging a netflix series / doomscrolling twitter or facebook / shopping on amazon or temu / wallowing in depression due to a lack of hobbies, nightlife, affordable housing and other necessities / getting bombed by the Russians / … ah, who am I kidding, I’m just illiterate 🤷
