AI is not replacing workers. It might automate a few steps in a workflow, which require dealing with natural language, image content or applying knowledge from the web or internal data stores.

It enables a bit more automation of work than it was possible earlier. Automation alone did never reduce jobs significantly.

I see AI replacing workers, but maybe it is my circles. Most of my SaaS selling friends; these are long term, as in 20+ year solution sellers in ERP, HRM, trading, banking in certain niches therein making very good money, removing most of their staff while delivering faster and better with the few senior core people they kept. Junior/Mediors can please go away...

You can tell it's great visual storytelling because you don't even need to know the words.

I guess the McDonald's ad didn't need words either, but it was just depressing and awful.

I thought the McDonalds one was good and what does it matter it was AI ; mcdonalds makes artificial food and everything about the place is artificial so why not artificial ads?

The article also says that Meta reinstated half the accounts providing abortion guidance that had been banned in error.

Given Meta, I’m more inclined to believe code bugs in an automated clean up job which they then move into their appeals process to get corrected.

Well, in these wonderful times we cannot exclude the possibility of entire flows being ran as just prompts, especially moderation and on an AI boo-boo having to roll back by a human. I do believe that's (much) cheaper than human moderation anyway, so it'll grow (even more).

I have different netflix recommendations then you, apparently.

I was going to say that. Also other US stuff I see: a lot of pointless sex and nudity.

Should’ve just said “Facebook? Isn’t that just for old people? Why would I use that?” instead of what they would perceive as a nerdy smart-ass answer.

But that is a bit of the issue: I see people use 'young' and 'old' platforms and it's all the same: stuck to the phone scrolling through exactly the same slob, ai or human, hours on end. Can't say I even find LinkedIn any different (which I also do not use, but colleagues send me stuff sometimes). So I want no part of any of them. What do I say then? Because I feel they will think I am some sort of unabomber haxor dude coming to overthrow the gov because I am not a happy insta scroller. Which is absolutely insane. Maybe I will hang a big cross around my neck and carry a bible at all times and no phone. Same purpose, so probably works.

So if you get one of those you are exempt from providing 5 years of your social media data? Convenient.

anonzzzies · 4 days ago

How does it currently (not) work if you don't have/use socials? They don't believe you to begin with?

Don't underestimate the rage from citizens who receive important documents and sheets in formats they can't open. Or you can open them but with a warning that some functionality might be lost. (reads like: you might go to prison)

My gov is moving 100% of documents, forms, official stuff to web based without browser plugins. Of course unfortunately if you want to download/print (...) it will be pdf, but outside that, all filling in, editing, reading etc of all citizen facing materials must be possible with a modern web browser. If PDF is only the export for the final doc, I am ok with it; I can fill ut with whatever browser on whatever device. This should be the mandatory basics imho.

I was drilled in using the GCL (and variations on it) in Eindhoven TUE and Amsterdam UvA a long time ago, nice to see it here. Not very practical these days but good for brain.

Nice, I live in PT. Will visit. I have around 30 working speccy's and especially the rubber key ones give me great nostalgic joy even though I was an MSX child.
