    Sigh.

    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 @david useful question, these days:

        Them: something something AI, you should try it!

        Us: what problem is this solving? (No thanks)

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

          I would really like to see what kinds of bullshit contracts these people signed with MSFT....

                @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 Raises the old point that those who feel secure in themselves are happy to treat others as valid and complementary, while those who are insecure have to push everyone else to do as they do, and patronise them.

                  @VeeRat You are so right. In college, I tried one semester to not take notes, but listen attentively instead, because I rarely if ever referred back to the notes I had written. My grades divebombed… next semester, I started writing notes again, that I then never referred to, and my grades recovered. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Lesson learned.

                    @VeeRat So true. Often I'll write the notes and then never look at them again. The act of creating them is the point.

                    @tartley @VeeRat Yes, I am 100% certain that this manager will never read the AI generated summary. And if they did they wouldn’t know what it was referring to. I hate everything about this timeline.

                      @UweHalfHand @VeeRat In college, I took notes in class, but they were hasty and not necessarily very legible. That evening, I'd re-write the notes in clearer handwriting, adding in things that I remembered from what I'd heard in class earlier. That extra bit of writing helped me to remember a lot more of what I'd learned.

                        @VeeRat This is literally how I “cheated” my way through college. Write furiously during lecture. Go home and rewrite so your notes aren’t chaos. Maybe consult the textbook when your own notes confuse you. Aaaaand it’s beer o’clock! Never even glance at the notes ever again.

                            @VeeRat@zeroes.ca It's also good for thinking. It's very common for me to write something down and discover that it makes no sense or that I made an incorrect assumption.

                            Using an LLM would free me of from the burden of finding out I was wrong... letting me stay wrong forever.

                              When I'm learning new things, especially if I need to remember information for a test, I have to write the study notes by hand in order for it to stick.

                                @VeeRat I am a tech dork with paper notebooks and fancy pens, that shit works!

                                And when everything fails, I note the time, to eventually check the logs and build a timeline.

                                  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 because some people are just assholes who refuse to acknowledge that "#AIslop" is a hinderance and net negative...

                                    @violetmadder @yetzt @N01100010 @VeeRat EXACTLY, cuz #Neofeudalism works best when everyone worships an "#Oracle" instead of using their own brains!

                                      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.”

                                      @VeeRat This fits the "performative processing" theory of management that seems to be going viral through corporate culture these days. In that model, the process of creating the product is prioritized over the output of the process. The end result is an expensive product that includes a lot of fancy buzzwords but doesn't perform as advertised.

                                        Also, Copilot literally makes shit up when it takes notes. There are a dozen malpractice lawsuits in the system right now bc doctors used Copilot and its errors seriously endangered the lives of their patients.

                                        I know you can't, but you should just tell him "I prefer my notes to be accurate".

                                          @VeeRat yes!!! Classic note taking studying techniques. Writing it out (not typing) sticks it in my brain.
