Kevin BeaumontGoing all in with GenAI, the case study.
In fairness, with GenAI you can accelerate things - eg the business directly into a wall.
MulboxA thing being repeated across businesses worldwide, including at Microsoft, is C level execs struggling to know why most staff aren’t using Copilot for M365, despite how much it costs.
Because most staff don’t spend all day in Teams meetings reading out PowerPoint slides to people who pretend to care. They have actual jobs. Doing work. Which they know how to do. Because it is their job.

it is so tiring trying to convince the C suite that it's good, actually, for security practitioners to know how to use the computer and want to learn more and get better

⠠⠵ avukoGenAI is a plausible bullshit generator. If it can replace your work, guess what your work always was?
I'll wait... I know the cognitive damage genAI use causes.
I feel I have to add this is solidly targeted at high payed bullshitters.
I have full compassion for people doing menial bullshit work.
We all know we should just go for UBI and move away from the "earn a living" horror, but that would inconvenience our Neo-feudal overlords, so good for you for just phoning it in.

TheSnoopySnoop@GossiTheDog Nicely put. I actually find Copilot distracting and use other means to analyse etc but it is most annoying while using Outlook in particular
TheBusCunts™@TheSnoopySnoop @GossiTheDog “in 300-500 words, tell me stuff about something. Make the heading bold, but also succinct, and use a natural tone, but kinda off beat in a kinda wanky way, you know? Also make it so that if it was dark it would be Tuesday, bur otherwise it’s September, and you should also cut it down to 50 words. And don’t misspell “colour” or “neighbour. Ta.”
FUCK. OFF.
FUCK. OFF.
@mudge @GossiTheDog Well a bit harsh but nicely put all the same. Deep breaths now….
@TheSnoopySnoop I’m not a fan 😂
@mudge Seriously? Would never have guessed 🤭🫣🤣
@TheSnoopySnoop I don’t know what management level reporting is available, but imagine you ask it stuff like “I’m going to a meeting about x, can you give me some relevant questions to ask?”
If Management can see what you’re using it for, what stops them going “wait, we pay that guy £40k and he asks Copilot what questions to ask? An intern could do that on minimum wage!” Guess who wins there?
Cap Ybarra@GossiTheDog which they *formerly* knew how to do, until they got their brains melted
Otte Homan - remember Geordie@GossiTheDog I feel there's an excellent meme un here somewhere: C suite corporate execs on a Cloud 9nthing staring at PPTX crud thrown at a display full of remote avatars with a copilot driving the cloud into a hellish thunderstorm, or something like that. With actual workers out in the pissing rain with both feet on the ground.
gunstick@GossiTheDog the moment my ceo used LLM to do his email, my reaction was: oh LLM can do that job. So no more need for a ceo. Nice.
Seth Mos@GossiTheDog If they want to replace a person it would imply giving someone the same access as the person you are trying to replace.
And even though a AI can probably manage to login to a Palo Alto with MFA after some effort, and parse some logs. I'd wonder if it would just fix it with a any-any rule.
Not even considering the human conversation where they tell you they only need port X. 😉
