@VeeRat They're trying to make converts because it validates their own use of the tools, which they feel insecure about. It's a quasi-religious evangelical impulse.
@cstross @VeeRat The thing I have seen the most-of is Gen Z and Alpha basically pretending to use AI to make Gamm-pa Boomer Manager happy, but really just learning the ropes and making the connections with the C-Suite while also playing nice with all the Xennials who actually Do Shit.
The result is when the Boomers FINALLY retire... the youngin's will probably be given the keys and will keep the Xennials who don't suck.
Much like Intergenerational wealth advice of "Leave it to the grandkids"

As everyone knows, the process is meaningless. Only the outputs have any value.
More accurately: only the outputs can be sold for money, the process is obviously a sink of effort and salaries -

New boss: “You’re good at writing notes.”
Me: “Thank you, it helps me to remember so I have been writing summaries for many years.”
New boss: “You should try CoPilot and see what it can do.”
Me: “Well I enjoy summarizing my notes, and it helps me to learn and remember.”
New boss: “Let me show you something I did in CoPilot.”
Ugh. Writing it myself helps me LEARN and REMEMBER. Why are these AI zombies so intent on changing a process that is helpful to me? Feeding notes through CoPilot won’t benefit me when it’s the act of writing that works for me.

@VeeRat
Sometimes I think of this story about the early bronze age, when bronze tools were traded along the then trade hubs. That archeologists found a site from people who didn't have their own bronze technology yet, who owned one bronze axe, and several wood replicas.I think of this story, and feel a bit relieved that at least, it's not just us living now.

@VeeRat But why do you need learning and remembering when you have AI? /s

@VeeRat there's actual science to support the eye-hand coordination of writing that supports memory and learning. AI is going to melt people's brains into jelly if we don't stop it.

@VeeRat "AI zombies" is the best description I've heard in a while. It says it all.
@N01100010 @VeeRat slopotomized ai zombies.

@VeeRat I had to explain to someone that the act of taking the notes is 99% if the value for me. I almost never actually go back and read them. For me also, paper is better than electronic.
But also zombies.
@petrillic @VeeRat I do look stuff up in my notes all the time so I do electronic, can't search physical notebooks for a phrase or whatever. But totally get the value of handwriting for memory.

@noodlemaz @VeeRat note taking is a super personal thing, because it's deeply linked into how our brains work

Friend of mine whose ancestors survived the European Pograms has pointed out that education is the only thing they can't take away from you.
Seems like they're trying very hard to cover that base, too.

@VeeRat Because $boss has usage targets and doesn't care why you do it by hand.
