Workers should learn AI skills and companies should use it because it’s a “cognitive amplifier,” claims Satya Nadella.
in other words please help us, use our AI
I know something useful that can be done with AI in its current form. Toss it in the fucking garbage maybe.
We need an American Zelenskyy who would save us from the oligarchs.
Like a president but good?
The oligarch class is again showing why we need to upset their cart.
As far as I can tell there hasn’t been any tangible reward in terms of pay increase, promotion or external recruitment from using the cognitive amplifier.
Our cogs do not feel amplified.
The useful AI is in scientific research and accounts for a fraction of a percentage of electricity used in “AI”. It’s not sexy. It’s not hip. And it’s not going to replace any workers, so the tech bros don’t care.
My dad is saying that he won’t hire anyone who doesn’t use AI, while he hires engineers from India for pennies.
One of my family members lost their job managing the self checkout, but he can prompt an LLM. Can your dad give him a job?
XD He probably would if he wasn’t waiting on a noncomittal (read scammy) investor to come through.
If only it were a paycheck amplifier
It is, just not for the pleb class.
Social permission? I dont remember that we had a vote or something on this bullshit.
So they pushed to make AI, but never had a good use case for it that was world changing, so now they want help to monetize it.
Feels like most trending tech these days. I’m so tired.
“A great commander secures his victory before entering into battle. A poor commander first rushes into battle, then searches for victory.”

How about we train them on killing billionaires?
Can we not all just log into chat gpt at the same time and ask it to count from zero up to a googleplex sequentially in one second intervals?

you never had it to begin with. Goddamn leeches.
They don’t have that permission
Microsoft CEO warns that we must ‘do something useful’ with AI or they’ll lose ‘social permission’ to burn electricity on it

I appreciate the social permission for so many folks to switch to Linux. KDE has come a long way.
No
can’t keep what you never had you corrupt piece of shit.
