United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I don't fear skilled professionals using GenAI to boost their productivity. I do fear organisations using GenAI to replace skilled professionals
And I also fear overburdened professionals not having time to second guess ML hallucinations.
You were probably already at risk then of a misstep. Don't have time to think about the output then they probably didn't have time before AI came along, so the AI isn't really adding to the issue here.
This. It is like any tool. It is down to the skill/knowlege/experience of the user to evaluate the result.
But as soon as management/government start seeing it as a cheat to reduce hiring. It become a danger.
I would prefer this to no healthcare until it’s too late which seems to be the option in places with free healthcare.
In no way related to this thread.
Yeah we should old use the corporate system which is brilliant. As long as you're rich, easy solution, just be rich and you're fine.
Thank you for your unhelpful and ignorant comment
I think the issue with this particular tool is it can authoritatively provide incorrect, entirely fabricated information or a gross misinterpretation of factual information.
In any field I've worked in, I've often had to refer to reference material as I simply can't remember everything. I have to use my experience and critical thinking skills to determine if I'm utilizing the correct material. I have not had to further determine if my reference material has simply made up a convincing, "correct sounding" answer. Yes, there are errors and corrections to material over time, but never has the entire reference been suspect, yet it continued to be used.
i maintain that AI companies could improve their stuff a huge amount by simply forcing it to prefix "I think" to all statements. It's sorta like how calculators shouldn't show more data than it can confidently produce, if the precision is only 4 decimals then don't show 8.
