I work with a coworker who is almost 50. She thinks AI is the bee's knees. Believes it 100% of the time (tried arguing with me about vaccines and rabbit animals, which I would say I'm fairly educated about). The other day she told me she uploads all her medical stuff from the doctor (MRI, Xrays, ect) so AI can translate it for her.
I can't wait for the AI boom to explode
Technically only a HIPAA violation of the doctor uploads stuff. Uploading your is stuff is just violating your own privacy, which at this point might just be a boomer national pass time.
Ok? Wasn't the point of the post lol
Rabbit animals?
I meant rabid lol
That autocorrect drives me rabbid as well.
That makes perfect sense in retrospect but my brain just couldn’t figure out the typo/false autocorrect 😂
I don't see why not.....rabbits are animals. That's just a fact, Jack! And fish are fish.....and bee's are knees.....wait a second......
Lmao I still have a love/hate relationship with touch screen keyboards. #LifeLongComputerNerd
I'm 52 and think AI is garbage.
