      So many things just needs something that looks right and is not too long or too short. Nobody will actually read it with some thought. It only matters that it exists.

      For bureaucratic bullshit like that AI is a godsend.

        Only if you’re working with sycophants or morons.

        Unfortunately, there are a LOT of those in life…

          In many things you need to be accredited by a third party according to some standards and they audit you periodically. They demand that you have shitload of plans, programs, reports, logs and other paperwork required by those standards.

          Auditors mostly only care that the paperwork exists and only focus on the contents on key aspects that are usually clear and short.

    I had to talk to some company’s chatbot yesterday that was just if/else powered. That sure was cumbersome to do. It couldn’t even tell me the company’s mailing address.

      That’s when they don’t want you to bother them with shit you could’ve read on their website (or a more restricted FAQ), but also care about not telling you bullshit. So rather than going full AI with hallucinations and what not, they give you predetermined answers in a “friendly” AI-ish way.

      I was forced to use bing while searching for some info on the internet, when I’d click on what looked like a useful result, I would instead get CoPilot slowly summarizing the info I needed back to me, and obscuring the source… Who the fuck though that was a good idea?

    Remember when that janitorial company changed its name to include the term CRYPTO and it’s stock went through the roof and the SEC investigated them for fraud?

    I can’t find the story unfortunately

    The answer to the original riddle is “Sure, can I have your phone to make a demonstration. Great. I’ll sell the phone and pen back as a package deal for $100.”

      I always thought a good one was to put the pen in your pocket and refuse to give it back. Make him name his price. Clearly it’s yours, not his. Otherwise how could you sell it to him?

    Yup. They don’t understand what it is or what it does. All they know is that it makes even dumber venture capitalists open their wallets.

      The PR Marketing guys sure don’t, but the actual Machine Learning and AI computer scientists sure do!

      I’d wager a lot of marketing people only skim the basic surface of what it does and just plaster it to their supervisors without you know… working with the ACTUAL technical experts in that field.

      Plus they think the non techie is a dum dum who don’t know no better.

    Classic MBA holders. They don’t understand where their companies profitably comes from and why, and are just trying to squeeze out profits. What parasites. Ah if I could deworm them. Individually. Up the butt kek. With actual dewormer. Maybe they’d get their act together.
