Let's leverage the key learnings into win-win scenarios by applying state of the art technologies to create shareholder value!

But have you involved all relevant stakeholders?

AstralPath@lemmy.ca · 18 pts · 210d (5 replies)

Might need to circle back on that one.

LordMayor@piefed.social · 11 pts · 210d

Needs more synergies.

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 210d (1 reply)

Let’s parking lot that.

Do donuts?

a_postmodern_hat@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 210d

Thanks all.

spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 210d

I just wanted flag this for you

RollingZeppelin@piefed.ca · 7 pts · 209d

Don't forget to ideate solutions so we can down select for optimal performance.

Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 209d

Are we no longer doing synergy?

So helpful. Gemini once summarized a VM from my kid (who is autistic and doesn't speak super well) as a "long, rambling and incoherent message" with no attempt to decipher what was said. We will not be replaced by AI anytime soon.

Cris_Color@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 210d

What a novel way for google to accomplish something kinda fucked up. The applications of ai truly know no bounds

"long, rambling and incoherent message"

Now I am genuinely curious how would AI summarise Trump speaches 😂

snooggums@piefed.world · 10 pts · 210d

If AI was reliably accurate it would be [incoherent dementia ranting]

JetpackJackson@feddit.org · 14 pts · 210d (2 replies)

Wtf that's messed up. I'm sorry that happened to yall. That's very dehumanizing

sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 210d (1 reply)

Thanks! It was pretty funny - even at the time. Although, yeah, pretty dehumanizing.

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 210d

I mean, it’s AI. It doesn’t even know what it is.

corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca · 9 pts · 210d (2 replies)

summarized a VM

A virtual machine? Is it still fun to dereference jargon the first time it's mentioned?

YerbaYerba@lemmy.zip · 10 pts · 210d

Voice mail?

pishadoot@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 209d

I think it's verbal meltdown?

MotoAsh@piefed.social · 4 pts · 210d

lol Yes we will. Many have already been replaced.

People NEED to realize how stupid and greedy capitalists are...

It doesn't have to be even comparable to the employee's actual output to replace them. It just has to make executives think it can, and since when did executives ever actually understand what they're employees do or how hard it is?

They're so deep in the ELIZA effect that they thoroughly believe this kind of problem is as easy as adding a couple instructions to fix.

It’s just a data grab on open ai’s part

agavaa@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 210d

Oh, absolutely. Some coworkers don't understand it though.

laranis@lemmy.zip · 20 pts · 210d

How long until the meeting content is condensed into a score that is used on performance reviews?

"Well, Bob, you're a diligent worker and your output is on par with your peers, but your Teams Meeting Quality Quotient is sub par. Among other things the Facilitator(TM) has noted a tendency to not use the entire allotted meeting time, and that the actions it automatically identified aren't being marked complete on the Teams AI Task Board. That looks really bad. It also says your meetings have 12% higher off topic content than your peers citing an increase to 15% correlating with March Madness. Though it is notable that the 60/40 split of male/female voices speaking is above the company mandate of 70/30, so that's good."

Now your meetings that should have been and email are sent as an email

cronenthal@discuss.tchncs.de · 15 pts · 210d

Wow, how helpful! Let's spend another trillion on this super-intelligence!

ilinamorato@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 210d

Wow. I could code up that "AI" in an afternoon, and I wouldn't even need an LLM for it.

melsaskca@lemmy.ca · 12 pts · 210d

Same shit goes on in these meetings forever but now you have to pay a monthly subscription for colour commentary. Only in america.

Facilitator is actually a pretty decent feature. It works pretty well for recurring meetings with a set agenda. The message shown is not very useful, but the automatic notes and summary are usually fairly good.

HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 6 pts · 210d

But that's not something you need an LLM for...

mushroomman_toad@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 4 pts · 209d

Still more helpful than my PM

angeld@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 210d

Sumarize? A inexistent meet is better than a non necesary meet.
