our workplace LLM mass delusion

The in-house sessions showing off the tech are embarrassing; led by the wrong people, and should likely not even happen in the first place.

Far too relatable. Both the "company feel" and the "AI competency".
Like, I always reach to a point where anything one would delegate to AI is:
A) Trivial, which means you don't need AI in the first place
B) Mundane, which means you want to automate parts of and AI isn't reliable enough to do it (anyone who knows what SLA and "three 9" means would toss AI booster out of the window)
C) Complex, at which point AI won't magically provide one with the expertise

Long story short, if AI is a tool or supposed to be one, then it's a really bad tool.

@rawenwolf @baldur One wonders whether "tool" even is the right word. Which other tool "can" do anything, rather than being designed for a clear, narrow purpose?

I'll run with "text toy".

They're great natural language translators. Really fantastic. But that all got done before the bullshit wave starting.
