My employer is pushing us all like crazy to incorporate AI into as much of our work as possible. I've been forced to sit through meetings, long meetings about AI and all the ways they want to use it. Then they made us all write down ideas for using AI in our daily work.

I have absolutely no fucking idea how to do that. I don't want to do that. I do not want it to BE. It will not work, and it makes no sense.

I hope I make it to retirement.

We're ruled by idiots in all facets of our lives.

This is the part everyone keeps skipping: corporate team building runs on psychotic good-vibes-only enthusiasm and laminated “trust exercises.”

We should really consider a more European-medieval model.

Mounted jousts.
First-blood duels.
Competitive drinking tournaments.
And, for strategic alignment purposes, perhaps a modest attempt to conquer Paris.

At least performance reviews would finally mean something.
