“AI” is a blanket term that has recently been used to cover everything from LLMs to machine learning to RPA (robotic process automation).

Yup. That was very intentionally done by marketing wanks in order to muddy the water. Look! This computer program , er we mean “AI” can convert speech to text. Now, let us install it into your bank account."

Sure. And AI that identifies objects in pictures and converts pictures of text into text. There’s lots of good and amazing applications about AI. But that’s not what we’re complaining about.

We’re complaining about all the people who are asking, “Is AI ready to tell me what to do so I don’t have to think?” and “Can I replace everyone that works for me with AI so I don’t have to think?” and “Can I replace my interaction with my employees with AI so I can still get paid for not doing the one thing I was hired to do?”

Agreed. Unfortunately, one half of our population thinks that anyone in power is a genius, is always right and shouldn’t have to pay taxes or follow laws.

Man, if only someone could have predicted that this AI craze was just another load of marketing BS.

This experience has taught me more about CEO competence than anything else.

Modify the chatbot to post to Truth Social and that’s an immediate upgrade from CEO to President!

[This doesn’t need an /s, does it?]

Try watching Winter on Fire on Netflix. It documents Ukraine overthrowing their dictator. It wasn’t a clean process. But hopefully the ending will be the same, with our dictator also fleeing back to Russia.

You means the person(s) funding all of this?

Since 2016, Democrats have operationally withdrawn from rural America.

FTFY.

Democrats have thrown in the towel on all Americans that aren’t billionaire political donors.

Guess this means Apple has run out of ideas on how to make iPhone better.

What can we do to distract attention away from the fact that we don’t have any decent new features?

• “Rename the business unit so we can print new letterheads and business cards?” Our customer don’t work here, sir. “Dammit!”
• “Release a new color that nobody wants? How about a light blue that is so close to the regular silver no one can tell?” We did that last year, sir. “Dammit!”
• “Oh, I know: Repeat the year 2000 mistake by naming our OS versions after the current year using only 2 digits. That will never bite us in the ass in the future.” Brilliant, sir.

From here on it’s going to be just more decades of, “Come on, bro. Just one more shot. My new AI that will be better. I’ve added another 5,000 Reddit pages. This one will be smart. Trust me, bro. Buy this hardware. I’ll throw in some Bitcoin and a couple of NFT. Just one more, bro.”

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — In a move that has sparked widespread debate, Rep. Mack Butler, R-Rainbow City, introduced a bill in the Alabama Legislature aimed at prohibiting the dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere to alter weather or sunlight, drawing concern and fueling “chemtrail” conspiracy theories.

Prohibit dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere to alter weather… hmmmm… you mean like carbon dioxide? Maybe this lawmaker will inadvertently help fight climate change?

Used to have an admin that would fully spell out every word except ‘pls’.

“pls don’t microwave fish in the breakroom”, etc.

You spell out every other word… is ‘please’ really that hard to write?

So how many of the execs said, “This job isn’t worth risking my life for” and quit? How many of them said, “Maybe we should examine how we do business and change.”? How many of them said, “My God. We’re killing people. I’m out.”?

Not a problem. Just let AIs handle the supply chain.

"It is not uncommon for cybercriminals to re-package previously disclosed data for financial gain. We just learned about claims that AT&T data is being made available for sale on dark web forums, and we are conducting a full investigation.”

Translation: “We have no information whatsoever. Based on our complete lack of information, we feel confident is saying this isn’t our fault. This sort of leak could not have been foreseen by anyone, it’s not our fault. While we ‘investigate’, we’ll continue business as usual – taking in large sums of money, demanding all customer private information for even the most trivial service, store that PII insecurely, paying our C-Suite insane amounts of money for failing to keep customer data securely and claiming that there is nothing else we can do. Regards, Customer Service.”

Having too much money is literally the easiest problem in the world to solve.

I legit got an e-mail from Facebook telling me that I should join Facebook because “no one uses e-mail anymore”. Ummmm……well someone must be still using e-mail and No.

How can we sell such incredible, one-of-a-kind pieces of priceless art at such low, low prices? Easy! We sell in volume!

Wait. I thought we were going to be replaced with robots. What do they need AI for? To interview the robots?
