  Spouting braindead hallucinations

  So how do you tell the difference?

    One costs several million dollars, the other 200, tops. I wonder how long it’ll take the shareholders to tell the expensive one to GTFO

    Exactly my question. More often than not, I’d wager on AI making the right call instead of the arrogant, power tripping blabbering dimwit who got to CEO because he’s got absolutely no scruples or morals and absolutely zero shame and will sacrifice anything for his goal of hoarding more wealth.

    It probably has less hallucinations.

      Except that these are AIs trained on the CEOs thoughts, so its a bit of a “We trained him wrong, as a joke” situation.

  “It’s common for people across the company to have questions for the CEO, but he doesn’t have time to answer them all,” Jean Yves Couput, senior advisor to footwear company Salomon CEO Guillaume Meyzenq, told The Information.

  With the help of San-Francisco-based startup Personal AI, Meyzenq trained an AI chatbot to answer his staffers’ annoying questions about company culture, mission, and strategy, per Couput.

  Where are The Yes Men? I feel like they did this.

  Wait, what the fuck?

  It’s real… I was sure that this was made up to sound out as “John is Kaput” and “Guy Amazing” or something. I cannot believe that there are real life humans who believe that all their underlings are dying to have a bit of their time, to ask them questions about company culture and mission. In all my experience the things I have wanted my boss’s time for are “did you look at that thing I sent you” and “can you make a decision about this and then enforce it afterwards please, any decision, literally any at all.”

    Also, people looking for answers famously love being made to talk to a computer instead of an actual human. A full-on “uncanny valley” AI pretending to be the boss is sure to go over just as well.

    I guess robotic phone trees that demand you speak, yet constantly misinterpret what you say, simply don’t hammer home the amount of contempt CEOs have for the rest of us. I’ve found that repeatedly hitting the zero key usually makes those calls transfer to a human, but somehow I doubt a CEO’s AI clone would give people that option.

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

    That’s an amazing reference, but even Wheatly is far beyond these things. And he was actually “hallucinating”. He thought was speaking Spanish at one point, but what he actually says is something like “You’re using this translation software incorrectly, please consult the manual”.

      Maybe more in line with the Fact Sphere: confidently claiming things that are frequently clearly false and/or off the wall

  Oh sure, of course CEOs want us to think they can’t be replaced by AI…

  • jonne@infosec.pub ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Yeah, that means we can just replace them with a basic ChatGPT subscription and save millions every year, right?
