Are we not discussing the last comment? The AI projects got killed by compliance, meaning they were a security or legal concern. This guy thinks these people should be scooped up and elevated.
AI tech bros are just asking for failure. They are gambling on unproven technology and calling it the next coming of Christ. If they were right, they will make just as much money as any other non-ai company. If they are wrong they lose their entire company and their business model, and they lose employees who k ow how to solve critical problems when their unmonitored and liability free robot goes rogue. The pros do not outweigh the cons.
Rules, compliance, legality, safety, quality concerns, even ethics. COMMUNISM! That’s what it is!
What’s next, Democracy in the workplace?
For gods sake, think of the shareholders
It’s a feature, not a bug. There’s no explicit regulation around AI use, so they can start using AI, knowingly break some regulations, claim it was AI’s fault and wait for the regulation to catch up. They pay a small fine, make a lot of money, and no one goes to jail.
It feels like a persecution complex. “They hate us because we’re better, and they’ll always hate us! So keep doing what they hate! (And give us money)”
And when they fail utterly they’ll blame everyone but themselves and make it a problem for the rest of us.
Never interrupt your opponent while he is in the middle of making a mistake.
they were a security or legal concern
Or even just an ethical or image one. No one’s allowed to just take hoards of company data and assets, share them with a non-vetted 3rd party and start an unapproved project out of the blue; why would AI projects be any different!? These people are absolutey unhinged.
Damn. Companies that haven’t embraced AI? Where does one find those?
Seriously, that’s horrible that some companies haven’t gargled the balls of Anthropic and OpenAI. Just terrible. Who are these companies so I can totally avoid accidentally sending them my resume?
I doubt you’d find big companies doing this. On the other hand, a lot of smaller / medium size companies focusing on specific skills and services are surprisingly anti AI. I came across this site (typescholar.com) last month, where they straight-up declare they won’t use AI.
IDK about companies that haven’t embraced AI, but I know of several companies that have already been burned by AI and abandoned it.
I work in architecture and its pretty much banned except for rewriting emails to sound less angry.
You are allowed to use it… but everything gets reviewed multiple times for code compliance and safety and, “the ai wrote it that way” is not an excuse that will prevent you from being fired… in fact its more likely to escalate a minor incident because you missed something to a major incident because you didnt even do your job.
Even their two sentence comment was churned out of a slop machine, either that or their brain is mimicking that sentence structure by itself.
I can’t escape GPTisms for the fucking life of me, and it’s much worse since people where I live have passable English and use it widely but very often now fall back on running it through a chatbot “just in case”. All the slogans are the same. All the group chat calls to action are the same. The descriptions of different options in a menu or delivery app are borderline impossible to tie back to a coherent description of a food item.
The eclectic French-tinged Lebanese flavor of English-as-third-language is all but dead in written form. And I used to fucking hate it, honestly. I’ll take it back any day.
Is this how people with gangstalking delusions feel? This shit is unavoidable and processing it for more than a second just enrages me
Setting up a system that couldn’t meet compliance rules… Isn’t something to flex about.
“Pilot programs that got killed by compliance” = “some slopgen bullshit that broke all kinds of security BPs”
Good luck to them, they’re gonna need it
“some slopgen bullshit that broke all kinds of security [Best-Practice]”
I wish our worst employers could understand how they’re breaking the very regs they strived to uphold 5 years ago – without letting Nana’s health info leak to Nigerian scammers, I mean.
And I may work on some serious shit in the daytime, but I’m out of a soulless Managed Service Provider (pimp) like everyone else – which means we’re getting the parent company’s FOMO-by-proxy on Ai. “Find a way to use it in your daily work” contravenes data sovereignty and privacy almost immediately, and even our security folks are just letting it slide.
Fantastic, hiring people that likely were so lazy and shit at coding that they’re relying on AI to do it for them, and you’re housing all of them under one roof. Idiot proof. Absolutely can’t go tits up.
Where are these mythical tech companies that don’t allow AI? Where are the ones that aren’t forcing their engineers to use it?
Im guessing these are people that got in trouble for trying to submit incorrect AI slop and were specifically told that they are no longer allowed to use AI because they keep fucking up with it.
I’m not convinced they actually exist. Even the very conservative implanted medical device company I recently left, for reasons unrelated to AI, is adopting it.
But they’re doing it right. Generative AI is only used for internal tools and automation. The software that runs on clinical devices is still written using a rigorous manual process where every module, function, and operation is planned out, reviewed, and documented before any of the code is written.
The only clinical use of AI is in data analysis because (non-generative) AI can be really good at finding patterns in massive piles of data. Those results are then presented to physicians, along with the raw data, for review.
But the AI bros don’t understand the ideas of “appropriate context” and “safe adoption.” Since “move fast and break things” attracts startup capital, it must be the right approach for everyone everywhere in everything, right?
My company is currently quite restrictive on ai. They probably don’t even know and I won’t tell them.
“killed by compliance” is just code for “leaked phi”
I don’t know about anyone else, but I absolutely love AI. It gives me so much more to do when the dip shit wide tie can’t be bothered to learn how to fill out a spreadsheet properly and just keeps letting AI do it for him.
I swear, I have to spend a couple hours every other week trying to figure out what the AI fucked this time.
Could’ve processed that already if ya’d bought the latest nShiddia 5099 ultra
