AI creates an illusion of work, not work proper. It's not for writers, it's for people who want to 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯. It's not for creators, it's for people who want a portfolio or a container full of "content." It is opposite to human expression; it is simulacra. A plastic hamburger on a tray.
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.

I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

I was reading this article about an assisted suicide machine they tried in Switzerland and it discussed things like the ethics of it and its adherence to the hippocratic oath, but it left out its biggest problem: it looks tacky.

Something wild about being autistic is that you'll say something you think it's fine but you accidentally used a tone that in society means "you should totally kill yourself"

Something I really really like about Annihilation the book is how Vandermeer is a master at bringing almost overwhelming humanity to the lovecraftian style, but it never loses that sense of radical aimlessness and nihilism that's natural to Lovecraft's work

Retvrn but only for libraries because I don't want to ask a guy for a book and he finds it in a computer, I want a tonsured old guy with a "codex" to help me find Epitome astronomiae Copernicanae with a candle

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Everyone (cis and trans) replying "just stop boymodding" or "start voice training" should grow a bit of empathy and common sense (and a spine). Not everyone has the same opportunities, resources, time and skills to do that. Not everyone (yes, cis and trans) needs/wants to have passing.
this is what it's like, yeah.

I like that in the latest years people are rediscovering and reclaiming far cry 2. It was a fun game. I just never could get why there was this bizarre first person shooting minigame that interrupted the driving sometimes.

There is a crazy feeling about KCD that I get because usually very complex games in which you die fast and "aren't special" take place in bleak worlds, like the Anomaly mod for Stalker, or tarkov, but KCD's music, artistic direction and writing is very light and cheerful.
