AI is just going to be the next way that we're all gonna get fucked over and exploited by the mega rich. What a future...

[-] ForbiddenRoot@lemmy.ml 33 points 1 year ago

This is true. I work in a related field, and my company and almost all of its clients are falling over themselves trying to identify what can be already replaced with AI.

Systematically processes are being broken down to identify activities that are "cognitive" are can be done by AI, with the goal of eventually replacing the human workers with AI almost entirely for those tasks. All these companies, including mine, are super profitable for most part but that is apparently not enough, and everyone fears being left behind and their share price tanking if they don't adopt AI too. So there's a mad rush to get it done everywhere.

Management.

Ironically management could really be done by an ai well. AI is amazing at time management and keeping its feelings in check, bad managers tend to be poor at time management and have a hard time not letting their personal beliefs seep into their work.

I wish that I was that optimistic. The data AI:s are trained on can be just as faulty causing them to have "personal beliefs seep in"...

That's why models exist. You don't let the AI do whatever it wants

Replacing the cognitive activity of the CEO would save the most money.
