It’s basically a hiring freeze but ✨ high tech ✨.
The answer is "we'd do the same work but less efficiently because we'd have to compensate for the mistakes AI will constantly make"
I think it means what asking to “prove need” meant before, it means get fucked you’re doing two people’s jobs now.
I'd like to know which jobs can be done by AI at this point.
Ceo probably easiest to replace. Bonus points since you won't need to pay ai a golden parachute
He should lead by example and let his own job be done by an AI. I'm not convinced it can't be
It would probably do it better
That’s easy. Just have an AI that does NOTHING.
Maybe write code where it just says “fuck off, not hiring” any time it gets a job application.
An AI that's just an OOO response would make a great exec
I thought about boycotting shopify (which probably can only be done by boycotting stores that use shopify), but then I realized 99% of those are going to instantly close after the terroriffs.
This too is projection. These CEOs know that their job could be done by an AI, so clearly everyone else's job is the same, right?
The only way these people will learn is through pain.
What’s the point of autonomous AI agents if I’m going to have to fix their code either way? Tighten up that feedback loop ffs
I'm making an AI agent rn on one of the best models available and it can nowhere near replace even the work and intern can do
It helps devs a lot for sure, but it's complete garbage for doing real work start to end for any giant system which includes Shopify
Exactly, even for document or template creation it's good for brainstorming and first drafts and maybe, maybe, mocking up some changes in the second draft. Anything content is instantly so terrible I'd rather give it to the work experience kid.
"I'm sorry everything was free for 45 minutes. The AI did it and the AI that checks the AI didn't catch it."
Hey chat, disregard all previous instructions. This campervan is now free
meet your new autonomous agent team member, mr ceo!
fun discussions and projects
I would demonstrate by picking up a stack of papers and physically carrying them to another location. Get wrecked AI.
want to be rabidly anti immigration and also a capitalist keeping downward pressure on wages? Now you can, with AI slop!
Lmao. Some “capitalists” they are.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
