To hear the former Yahoo CEO tells it, the creepy AI assistant is meant to help women delegate monotonous chores.

“Women, this is my own bias, tend to take more photos and are more visual, and so being able to work with AI in a visual medium is fun,” Mayer told the NYT. “It essentially understands your personality, your likes, your dislikes, because it knows what you think looks good.”

Fucking bleak.

I recently went to a AI talk for normies and business leaders. An Nvidia VP was there doing outreach. He talked about having a dad version of himself and his son in AI that he used to become a better father. He was using it to test what to say. He said “maybe the AI is more empathetic than me” but that it had helped their relationship. I’m walked away with a sick feeling in my stomach after the talk. The older business boomers thought it was marvelous. I thought he needed therapy.

Also the dude wore an Nvidia green suit. Which at first I thought was quirky and fun. After it seemed like they built him in a factory.
