People in software development who use AI to code don’t realize how many white collar mid level admin people have started totally phoning it in using LLMs. I’m mildly curious to see how long they can ride this out.

I lot of these people just want a menu board. One of the things about being a designer is you have to have some taste and understanding of the field. This is just business owners who are trying to check a box and don’t actually care. This is compounded by the fact that few small restaurant owners come at it from the ‘restauranteur’ side of the spectrum and usually come from the food side. This means design of anything is pretty far down the list.

Even if they were not recording from his perspective you have no idea what the stupid things are doing. You don’t really control them, Meta does.

Lol at the lawnmower thumbnail

People hate when they identify AI slop.

When it’s not in a context they are used to they don’t even notice and are fine.

Currently I suspect this is greatest in restaurant menu board are art. At least that is where I notice it the most.

Yes, and it’s not generational at all. Boomers scroll YouTube shorts and tiktok and take it at Gospel just as much as the younger people do.

You joke but drunk drivers love those trucks.

Yeah I don’t understand why the media doesn’t name her.

Oh wait maybe I do…

Makes sense.

Hopefully the people cutting these down are not carrying their phones with them. Bluetooth and WiFi can be used to identify people.

If the Ukrainians can make a drone drop a grenade I’m sure someone can make one that can spray black paint at a lens or solar panel.

Software is easier because you can basically ‘inspect the house’ and the ‘home inspector’ via software.

Harder to do that with a house. Also a lot of different rules based on locality.

I don’t think they really are out to fuck consumers so much as they are an after after thought.

The consumer space just isn’t able to pay what companies are paying and so in the words of Don Draper - ‘I don’t think about you at all’

What is a bit of a dick move is their consumer division paying lip service and pretending like they matter to the company at all.

They did but do their latest cards have an option for 24gb like my 7900xtx?

I like them for Linux support but I don’t doubt they would start doing the same crap if they could break CUDAs strangle hold on the ML LLM space

Is it…?

Where is Deutsche Bank based? And like a bunch of Swiss ones… And HSBC…? I’m sure there are more

As in ‘to kickback and relax’

It’s actually 🐄

Yeah the issue with this is that it becomes a major pain to enforce.

Tones of schools have no phone policies but no one enforces it.

Students won’t give them up and parents get upset because they can’t contact little Timmy or because his 1500 iPhone is in someone’s desk.

In large organizations when the order comes down from on high that ‘we are all in on whatever’ AI in this case, middle managers and product owners start looking for ways to ram that thing into their product so they can keep playing the game.

Reddit is an old web web site so they are talking about users and advertising so they desperately do not want to talk about the bots because they know a large amount of the content is bots and to try and cull them would make the numbers go down.

Usually they can’t do that.

You’re not giving companies a tax break you’re just contributing to their marketing / good will budget. They collect so they ‘can be good cooperate citizens’ and hand someone a giant check and make a press release.
