  • During a meeting not too long ago someone was like "we're looking into using AI to generate these reports."

    So they have a dude who gets requests to generate reports. It's not the same reports, but rather custom reports from scattered bits of data throughout a huge database. Ergo you can't really create a program to extract these reports on demand, a person actually has to sit and piece these together.

    Now they want to use LLMs to alleviate him, as this isn't technically his role.

    They scoffed at me when I asked about how important it is that these reports are accurate, but I mean, it's a valid concern. Best case you get sometimes-hallucinated reports, worst case you get something that wreaks havoc on the database because it just spits out garbage SQL.

    I'm very glad that my role doesn't involve that BS.

  • I vibe more with the sewer merchant in Dark Souls.

  • His maternal grandfather thought that Hitler and Nazi Germany was a Jewish conspiracy. He was such a big Nazi that even Hitler wasn’t Nazi enough. Like, what the hell.

  • Though it’s not like we needed any more proof. Musk’s family has historically been racist Nazis going back well over a hundred years, and Trump’s racism is what made him famous to begin with. The rapes etc. are really just cherries on top.

  • I’m in my 30s and this is me with plants. No shame at all.

  • I make software for iron mining.

  • FORMALDEHYDE FACE!

  • My job is mostly thinking and pushing buttons.

  • Oh no, absolutely essential but not essential enough to deserve respect, be paid a living wage, or require good working conditions. Just essential to my comfort.

  • I think for it to be more accurate to my experience, different parts of the bubbles should be blurred, and they should say different things.

    Finally, it's weekend!

    It's incredibly frustrating nonetheless.

  • I think it fits. It’s about as agile as a brick, and Microsoft tries really hard to make it look friendly and approachable.

  • I feel like this could happen.
