    AI is so amazing we just need to hire entire departments to make sure it isn’t completely full of shit!

      Waow, look at all the money we saved with layoffs. Buy our stock!

      Waow, look at all the growth we’re experiencing, we have to hire more developers. Buy our stock!

        Sadly, this is exactly what’s happening.

    We fire humans to prop up AI. But AI is so not there yet that we need humans to double check.

      Yeah but the new humans are cheaper

        This. This is one of the main reasons AI is being hyped by the tech bros. It’s a powerful pretext to lay off hundreds of thousands of engineers across the sector and re-hire them as “contractors”.

    Or, you know, you could just build a good search engine and let users scroll 15 seconds in the first result to find what they’re looking for.

        Yeah, the “good” part means surfacing relevant, high-quality information, not click maximisers

    After brainwashing, here comes slopwashing by Google’s clank engineers.

    I’m not anti-AI at all, but their LLM definitely isn’t ready for the top of a google search as if it is real information. Of course, posting promoted search results at the top of the searches as if it was a real result already devalued them.

      Ive had many times where the LLM “spoils” the answer, my field of work requires me to search for exact pieces of text written by humans, it will pull those pieces of text and put them front and center, surrounded by text it wrote that never gets read.

    It’s trained on their SERPs that have been steadily getting more useless for 20 years. Of course its answers suck.

    They didn’t have people doing that?

      I’ve seen 100 shitty job postings for rating AI results. It’s rather complicated and pays pennies.

    Everybody must jump onto the AI train no matter how often it derails!

    So who profits?

    The unholy alliance of tech giants and government.

    Who loses?

    Everybody else. This is US tax money being thrown into a money burning machine.

      wasted money is bad enough, but the environmental cost is the one we should be rioting about
