Hence the job title ‘prompt engineer’ I guess. If you know about Soylent Green, AI is people!
I think chat GPT wrote this article.
No I like yours better.
What about semantics?
“Nothing is better than cake."
“But bread is better than nothing.
"Does that mean that bread is better than cake?”
I think I’m referring to something much more difficult. In most of the places I’ve worked, if your boss says that the plan is… actually they won’t call it a plan they’ll call it a strategic direction… that we will all flap our arms and fly to the moon and mine the green cheese that is there, it’s not ok, even as a moon expert, to reply that the moon isn’t made of green cheese. That would hurt your boss’s feelings. They won’t say “It hurts my feelings when you expose my ignorance”, they’ll just say you have a poor attitude, or that you don’t know how to communicate.
There are unwritten rules about how people need to restrict knowledge to themselves and those they trust in order to gain power. To these people, loyalty is more important than the truth, so in order to demonstrate that I am trustworthy, I have to at least appear to accept the green cheese strategic direction, even if I manage it by gradually using different words until the actual work that needs to be done is included in the strategic plan. To a neurotypical person this is just basic office politics and they just nod and say yes to their boss and work it out from there, but to us it hurts not to be able to speak the truth and discuss ideas openly.
There are certainly photoshop jobs of this image, but as far as I can tell, the black and white version with the sign saying 'pon farr night fridays' is the original. I'd like to know where the photo came from though.
...quotation marks... That's enshittification at work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification A backwards step from... Alta Vista in 1996!!! https://jkorpela.fi/altavista/
I understand what pon farr is, but where is the photo from? Which is the original? When was it taken and why? Is the original negative/print held by a particular organisation?
I’m Australian. I read the title and immediately scanned the photo looking for the huntsman (spider).
Damn. Just when I’d learned to pronounce Eyjafjallajökull.
Top o’ the mornin’ to ya. Clippy O’Pilot at yer service.
Is that her? She looks like a hallucination.
Enshittification. Every human who uses computers on a daily basis needs to understand this word.
Functional Neurological Disorder aka Dissociative neurological symptom disorder aka Conversion Disorder?
The latter has the following diagnostic criteria in DSM V:
- One or more symptoms of altered voluntary motor or sensory function.
- Clinical findings can provide evidence of incompatibility between the symptom and recognized neurological or medical conditions.
- Another medical or mental disorder does not better explain the symptom or deficit.
- The symptom or deficit results in clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other vital areas of functioning or warrants medical evaluation.

We don’t seem to have a Lemmy community for any of these yet? True? Maybe we need to get together on ‘Diagnoses of exclusion’?

One of my favourites is “Christ on a bike!” because it’s so hilarious.

If plastic surgery is based on people with good looks, it seems to be very loosely based on them!
They don’t give a definition of ‘incomplete’ or ‘faulty’? Is that on purpose?
