not to call ai a big woop of nothing but slack absolutely slaughtering any remaining trust they have in order to provide "emoji suggestions" is incredible
Show threadtefMay 16, 2024

for context, slack is launching "AI Features" trained on global data

and you can tell it's being launched without purpose as the list of benefits includes "emoji autocomplete"

like

no-one in their right mind would go "so we're going to make every sab/ox customer panic, so slack knows if to use the party hat emoji or the party balloons emoji by default"

this is the funniest thing slack's done since they rebranded themselves as a tool for remote work, despite years of "no-one gets remote work at slack"

@tef fitting more clowns inside the car, per cubic mm, is the whole point of the ever shrinking die feature sizes!

@tef Assuming the car is static in volume I am uncomfortable with the exponentially increasing clown density
Show threadtefMay 17, 2024
@jonty thankfully the clowns are down to 12nm

@tef @jonty At some point the clowns are so small it becomes difficult to tell where one clown ends and another begins. This will spell the end of Clown Computing but improvements in Contortionist Computing look promising
