Forced to use AI at work, hate it. Usage is monitored so I can't avoid it. I've set up mine to play a Sim City clone. It burns through tokens, making crap cities that quickly go bankrupt. Just been told that I'm getting a bonus for being a top user.
@fesshole you better build something useful instead, a side project.

@fesshole Such efficiency! Productivity through the roof!

Satire in 2026 is a very tough gig. It reminds me of the person that set up a fake ICE tip line, and his most brutal satire is when he just repeats what the callers said to him.

Now I need to know more about this ICE tipping story.

@fesshole why are you forced to use Ai? I doubt it helps make your job easier
Companies are truly blind to what employees and general public actually want tbh

@fesshole We have the same BS at our work. I'd love to know what prompt and model you are using for this

if these are the people we will have to general strike with we will never general strike
i get it, you don't want to lose your job.
what happens when the only jobs are the ones that hurt people?
they'll just get better at rationalizing
stop destroying the plane while claiming the only way to survive is by destroying the planet

This is something I have thought about (and observed) a lot over the years.
When I hear tech companies blaming privacy violations on users, and about policy pushing the obligation to address privacy and security issues onto those with the least amount of agency -- these things all feel very similar to me.
I know FessHole is UK and EU based (/me waves -- hello, friend!) but it reminds of the toxic myth of rugged individualism we love here in the US.
@funnymonkey @dalias @alexmu @fesshole We keep blaming the marathon runners for running next to bunch of banana peels on the road. We need to start blaming the asshole who threw the banana peels onto the road into the first place. Blame the billionaires who are forcing us to run the rat race

@funnymonkey @dalias @alexmu@RachelC_Y @EI3JDB @funnymonkey @dalias @alexmu when you peek behind the curtain and see that, i think any sane person would find it disturbing.
I mean, the kindergartner's parents.
I have my own stories from the 70s right up, but they pale in comparison. My own experiences just make them credible. The acceleration.
I knew we had not moved past it. I did not realize how much we had not.

THIS. Is fucking genius.

@alexmu @fesshole Ignoring that the story is probably made up because there's an audit trail that'd get them fired, if they're required to use the thing in their job anyway, there is nothing unethical about meeting the requirement in a way that protects themselves from the cognitohazard and deskillling and sabotages the boss's intent. Same harm to planet either way and that's on the employer.

@fesshole I think I will play this game, too. Until “thinking allowed” is back.

@cheezybuffet @fesshole Why? LLMs are frowned upon and companies bought so many expensive “eeehhh eyyyy” plans…
