Deskilling blue collar labor is how America gave China a manufacturing edge. What do you think will be the result of deskilling white collar labor?

Here’s a question: why don’t you take their advice seriously instead of being so sensitive to their manners?

Enshittification is a paradigm shift, but not one we associate with the birth of the internet.

On to your list. Why does misinformation appear after the birth of the internet? Was yellow journalism just a historical outlier?

What you’re witnessing is the “Red Queen hypothesis”. LLMs have revolutionized the scam industry and step 7 is an AI arms race against and with misinformation.

LLMs are not like the birth of the internet. LLMs are more like what came after when marketing took over the roadmap. We had AI before LLMs, and it delivered high quality search results. Now we have search powered by LLMs and the quality is dramatically lower.

IDK about “white knight”; I first heard the phrase “dangerous by default” from a black man recounting how he got nervous being on an elevator with a white woman.

“Dangerous by default” is one hell of a thing to internalize 😞

Regardless of the team size, I say simplify as much as you can so you can dedicate your resources customizing what makes their business special. You mentioned a PBX system and no infrastructure, this makes me think you talking about Customer Management. It sounds like you’re documenting as you go, fantastic. Maybe loop in a noob time to time to review the documentation or have a Q&A that reifies the docs. Best of luck!

I think a concern for the business is whether other people can help maintain the system. As such don’t go too custom and roll your own. Take things like nextcloud and see if you can fit the requirements by bolting on a few docker services. Keep it simple by using “appliances” where it makes sense (dedicated NAS?).

Can our AI fall in love with a human? Scientists laughed at me when I asked them but I found this weird billionaire to pay me to have sex with his robot.

I can’t take made up curves seriously

I’m surprised it didn’t end as a crypto announcement

Like I said, hard to find a historical equivalent. Like which side would you compare the execution of landlords? The north paid the slavers restitutions instead.

It’s hard for Americans to think of a historical equivalent. Imagine if Texas managed to splinter off and join the UK common wealth during the Civil war.

Stop confusing young autistic vulnerable people.

I’m old and autistic and not confused by the fact trans women are women. Hope that helps.

It’s small potatoes really. The real money is in insider trading.

Protest can also be a form of art and memetic transmission. Don’t be so quick to dismiss others.

Sure, which is why installing it is largely a protest. I don’t think US tiktokkers are going to seriously learn pinyin so they can properly tag their post.

There’s already a mass exodus to RedNote, and I gotta say, I love that there are no ads.

Yeah, because LLMs have shown they understand language and aren’t bullshitting us. /s

Like I get this might generate new leads to explore, but to say it’s a virtual cell as if the model is somehow self-consistent is malpractice.

The revolutionary potential of a media platform is inverse to how mainstream it has become. Lemmy and mastadon don’t need to be big to be influential because the people who show up to those platforms are (relatively) engaged in their AFK communities.
