Man... forget about the dystopian themes here, the desperation is what gets me.

This reeks of "Oh my god, please use our product we are so deep in the red!" The scattershot plastering billboards for "AI" everywhere tips their hand at how little they have to offer. Let's face it, this product would only be useful to maybe 1% of people (or maybe The 1%) a billboard is a waste of time and money. If you had a LLM agent that could actually replace humans you be quietly meeting with CEO's and managers, not putting posters on bus stops. This is desperation, probably combined with a stock pump.

"Job creators" is a propaganda term. They create jobs begrudgingly and after exhausting all other options.

“We didn’t expect people to get mad. The goal of the campaign was always to rage bait, but we never expected the level of backlash we ended up seeing. Looking forward, we’ll likely tone down the messaging to be more in line with what we actually believe rather than just clickbaiting..!

Luckily, the people who were mad aren’t our target audience”

Read that last line. Let that sink down in.

"In a pre-experiment survey of experts, the mean prediction was that AI would speed developers’ work by nearly 40 percent. Afterward, the study participants estimated that AI had made them 20 percent faster.

But when the METR team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20 percent slower when using AI than when working without it."

What could possibly go wrong with entrusting most of the working parts of your company and its secrets completely to another company?

stop hiring humans

Bold statement from people who depend on humans also not deciding their head should stop being attached to their torso.

I am so down for AI taking over all jobs. But I am not down for that meaning “now all humans who no longer have jobs have no use to us and should starve.”

Unfortunately that what will happen. No one in our government is talking about UBI.

Meanwhile my province is trying to succeed from Canada and join the states. I hate how stupid everyone is here sometimes.

i think that would be more of a fail than a succeed tbh

I swear to fucking god auto correct takes real words that are spelt correctly and changes them just to make me look stupid. And I don’t need any fucking help looking stupid, I can look stupid just fine all on my own.

Fredselfish@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 338d

That happens to me on here all the time. I swear it will retroactively go in and mess up my comments after posting.

Because I always check before posting and still messes them up. But only on the app, which is my main way of using Lemmy.

ngdev@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 337d

same, i turned off all the autocorrect stuff for one main reason and a second reason that wasnt the original reason

1: i answer work chats from my phone and this is how i message on a keyboard, so it basically doesnt seem obvious that im not at my desk

and

2: it makes me seem less like an llm

Saw it in Seattle too.

Really tempted to paint a dick on it and see AI remove it.

What's hilarious is, in most instances, if the humans boycott the company, they die. But they're so out of touch and so far up their own arses sniffing their own farts, surrounded by yes men, they forgot what reality is.

How much will You pay the AIs? Will They be paying taxes? Will You be paying taxes from the profits You gain from AI?

Fredselfish@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 338d (6 replies)

Do you rich even understand if no one can buy their widgets then they don't have a business?

hOrni@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 338d (4 replies)

I don't work like that. They will always have a business. Because we have no choice. We have to buy their shit. We don't need AI in everything. But if everything has AI, we have to buy AI. And we have to pay more, because it has AI. A decade ago it was touchscreens on everything.

Fredselfish@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 338d (2 replies)

Can't buy shit if we have no jobs.

You can't buy shit if you have no money. A job does not equal money.

Soup@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 338d

These fucks literally complain about millenials “killing restaurants” and shit because we can’t afford to eat out while also telling us that if we can’t afford anything we should stop eating out. It’s been decades of that nonsensez

If there’s no one left to buy their shit that’s a huge problem that can’t just be pretended away.

bold_atlas@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 338d

It doesn't work like that anymore. Companies make money by pumping their stock with investor pitches and vaporware. They don't have to sell anything anymore or even turn a profit. It's all powered by speculation.

It's effective outrage marketing. I didn't know about this company until people began sharing their Billboards around. It's not the first time I have seen these either.

There's an article/blog post on their website where they share their process behind the campaign and how and why they did what they did. It's very interesting from a marketing perspective, even if I personally think outrage marketing is in bad taste.

Link to article/blog post

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 1 pts · 330d

So it effectively was spread by people who dislike the campaign's message to the dumbfucks that liked the message and bought the product? So in the end, it's not even able to be taken as sarcasm. They said what they meant and that's what they are selling.
