Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

We should expect some enterprising Microsoft coder to come up with an automated AI agent system that racks up chatbot metrics for them — while they get on with their actual job.

Lol!

Even better, going off my view of the marketing AI Everything as an annoying popup, we need AI to fight AI, counter the attempt to ask the user if they'd like to try Copilot by yeeting it off the screen. Everyone likes robot fights.

Imagine thinking that MS had that kind of talent onboard.

AI is so ridiculous. I literally asked copilot (ms's ai) to recommend books to me based on some books I like... and most of them didn't exist.

AI isn't optional + AI doesn't help at work = it's okay to slack off at work if you can blame AI

Not really possible in an environment were the most useless person you know keeps telling everyone how AI made him twelve point eight times more productive, especially when in hearing distance from the management.

Why would I want to use something that can create problems like this?

The funniest part is Elon Musk and friends have chatbot psychosis and nobody can tell them.
