We were recently forced to take AI training at work and this was exactly one of the training scenarios used, a financial analyst who needs to send a report to the CFO could just dump all the documents into Gemini and send the output out so that they didnt have to spend any time actually reading the corporate financial reports. I was horrified when I heard it but apparently we're all supposed to have faith in our new AI overlords and put the pedal to the metal accelerating toward iur own demise.

    "My one condition for this interview - I must be referred to with my President title in full, not shortened to VP. People always focus on the 'executive' part and forget the President part. It's important."

    wild that this has basically become "you guys need to take some personal responsibility and use AI in a way that is useful and makes us a return on our insane investment"

    I hope the employees are doing this on purpose. Like, “Oh, you going to fucking make me use AI? Right. I’ll use AI for fucking everything. I’ll even let it decide what to send to you. Enjoy.”

    Good, you can get the same exp the rest of us have to deal with from both coworkers and clients.

    WELL WELL WELL, WHO COULD'VE PREDICTED SUCH A PREDICAMENT??????????

    perhaps Microsoft's senior execs need to read the room, sit down, and take some responsibility for the chaos they've unleashed on the world.

    And come down from their ivory towers, see things from the same plane of existence as the serfs and plebeians that should be grateful for living under their shadow? Preposterous!!!
