AI psychosis among the C-suite is really high now.

AI psychosis among the C-suite is really high now. I’m seeing it at work, where they validate everything using AI even though they know it screws up. For example, if I tell them a reboot isn't needed for a CVE because we aren’t running the app directly on the server, its in Docker, they will immediately fact check me with AI right while we talking. It’s just 1 example, but I’ve never seen such bizarre behavior. They treat AI like some divine truth. Has anyone noticed this?
@nixCraft not C-suite related but possibly more alarming: I’m getting fact-checked by people in my life when talking about things I have experience with (tech stuff, phone plan, whatever)… men I know feel the need to ask confirmation to LLMs. It’s mind boggling

@nixCraft Yep, same thing at my company.
It seems to be due to AI companies trying to make digital-god and they keep telling everyone they have.

@nixCraft also noticing it in the just average folk suite too.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social
Yeah, the amount of trust they put in those things is absolutely mind-blowing

@nixCraft <cough>Meta<cough> <- That's one of the primary reasons I left the company.

@nixCraft spot on...

@nixCraft being constantly bombarded with stress (news, economy, social discourse) makes people lose cognitive ability, and humans take the path of least resistance, enter ai to help take a load off

@nixCraft yes. The way it is set up, it creates easily digestible plausible bullshit.
Easily, because there is no social, emotional or cognitive friction or effort needed. It starts responding immediately and pleasantly.
Digestible, because it is trained on the most often occurring sentences, contexts and words. No new language, no cognitive effort to understand or investigate underlying concepts, no awkward idiosyncratic language by other humans who think feel and express differently.
Plausible, because it is a language model, so the grammar and tone and words fit expectations, with a high probability.
Bullshit, because the output can be either correct or wrong, but it has no basis in reality.
Something makes a certain part of society very susceptible to this.

@nixCraft AI is like micromanager crack.

@nixCraft Trump's team is like this too. Trump squad probably be out here using some hyper-affirmation AI to make all their big brain decisions.

@nixCraft The asking the LLM in the middle of conversation is what gets me. Like, I'm here trying to tell you something and you have the audacity to fact-check me with a slopbot before I even finish my sentence?
Hell no. I've started simply walking away from such conversations. Go on, talk to your LLM, see how far that gets you. -

@nixCraft Mine let you know which "agent" every document has to be run through to "correct errors" before it gets to that level. If you don't, they reject it based on believing the non-human more than the human.

@nixCraft well, the biggest red flag is their urge to fact check the expert. Using AI is just the icing.

@nixCraft yep, my colleague too. Stops listening and starts typing while I’m explaining something. It’s rude

@nixCraft Yes, I quit.
