Jonty Wareing"AI is a force multiplier!!!"
Yes but some engineers should not be having their force multiplied. It's like giving a tank to a gerbil.
Workshopshed@jonty there's a disappointing lack of gerbils in tanks photos on the internet so here's one in a car.
HilaryI had pet gerbils when I was a kid (Merry and Pippin, I have not forgotten).
That looks nothing like a gerbil.
Which is probably the point
Edgar@Workshopshed @blogdiva @jonty A gerbil in the Oval Office would be a huge step forward for the world
@jonty this week I was taken on multiple wild rides by Microsoft CoPilot only to discover there was a setting that needed configuring to support large files.
Barney Livingston@jonty Amplifying a noisy signal also amplifies the noise. But these amplifiers add a bunch of noise of their own!

š enkidu š¤@jonty but many people DO keep gerbils in a tank of some kindā¦. :thonk emoj:

@jonty When you multipy the force of shit you just get a shitstorm.

Kraftwerk-Das Model Collapse@jonty tbh given the choice I'd definitely take the gerbil
Jim Flanagan@jonty More akin to giving a gerbil to a tank
@jonty Itās a force multiplier, proclaimed the person unfamiliar with fractions

Lasse Beyer@jonty gerbil... tank... somehow reminds me of this one:
[HD] Joe Cartoon - Gerbil genocide
Pevin Kinel@jonty ...and that multiplier is a float between 0 and 1
David Nash> a float between 0 and 1
In absolute value.
I donāt use generative āAIā tools at work, but I have cleaned up other peopleās gen-āAIā messes, so its net effect on my productivity (as an individual, at least) is negative.
Mike Spooner@jonty Judging from the results, AI is a farce multiplier.
64 Islands Aroha Cooperative@jonty @c0dec0dec0de well the first problem with "ai as a multiplier" is that it famously can't do math
