How stupid do you have to be to believe that only 8% of companies have seen failed AI projects? We can't manage this consistently with CRUD apps and people think that this number isn't laughable? Some companies have seen benefits during the LLM craze, but not 92% of them. 34% of companies report that generative AI specifically has been assisting with strategic decision making? What the actual fuck are you talking about?

....

I don't believe you. No one with a brain believes you, and if your board believes what you just wrote on the survey then they should fire you.

you know what, yes, I love this energy and I want more of it. This is how brave people should talk to management, but it's how everyone should talk to AI hucksters.

Is the AI boom the new Blockchain of scams?

I reckon it's more like the iPod touch. It's applying a new idea in an area that is a mismatch for it's potential. Eventually the best use for the emerging tech will become apparent and the current form will fall away

This gets a vote from me for "Best of the Internet 2024", brilliant pacing, super braced, and with precision bluntness. I'm going to pretend the Monero remark is not even there, that's how good it was.

It's consistently pretty good for writing items with low technical importance and minimal need for accuracy.

I'll never write a job description myself again and my need for getting with communications for mass correspondence is almost gone.

Fuck you for wasting my time with bullshit job descriptions then

Honestly, I use it because it does a better job than who we usually use, the items it adds to the Job descriptions usually actually exist.

Good for writing things nobody will read and reading things nobody wrote.

Masterful wordsmithing, I must find a place for this quote in my future writing. I'll save and credit.
