Inside the Department of War are two wolves: "We've shut down the Colleges of War because book learnings are woke, gay, and irrelevant to war fighting." "How come no one told us the Strait is important, there are different kinds of Kurds, Iran is big, and air power historically doesn't win wars?"

A study 1,488 workers who use AI tools showed some interesting results

Partícipants saw increased mental fatigue especially after using 3+ AI tools and having to oversee multiple AI agents. However they saw reduced burnout thanks to automating repetitive tasks.

I’ve argued being a manager is the best preparation for being a worker in a world of supervising AI agents instead of doing the work by hand. Now backed up with research.

When Using AI Leads to “Brain Fry”

As firms increasingly incentivize employees to build and oversee complex teams of agents—for example, by measuring and rewarding token consumption as a proxy for performance—people are finding themselves pushed to their cognitive limits. Participants in a recent study described a “buzzing” feeling or a mental fog with difficulty focusing, slower decision-making, and headaches. The authors call this phenomenon “AI brain fry,” defined as mental fatigue from excessive use or oversight of AI tools beyond one’s cognitive capacity. This AI-associated mental strain carries significant costs in the form of increased employee errors, decision fatigue, and intention to quit. The findings also show how AI-driven workflows can be designed to diminish burnout and point toward specific manager, team, and organizational practices to avoid mental fatigue even as AI work intensifies.

@gemlog I'm pretty sure you can't join the EU, but in principle NATO should protect you. Easier said than done, though.

Things like student loan debt is great, because it puts workers into massive debt before going into the workforce, which gives capitalists leverage over us.

But really it doesn't go far enough. We should just be born with debt. Babies have been getting off scot-free for far too long.

Folks interested in science should be interested in Retraction Watch, which is now 15 years old. Started by medical journalists Ivan Oransky & Adam Marcus, the site is the only one (that I know of, anyway) that uncovers and tracks scientific retractions, errors, and other controversies. My best friend of 27 years happens to work there too, but that's besides the point! They do vital work no one else is doing. Their year-end summary is impressive.
