@datarama @histoftech That's disturbing on many levels.
@DukeDuke @histoftech The same person once, in the middle of an actual face to face conversation, took out his phone to ask ChatGPT what to say to me.

@histoftech I prefer the more antiquated "Slop Puppet"

@datarama @histoftech The outlook for our future makes me want to play in traffic.

In Finnish military there has been a term 'nahkarele' that translates to 'leather relay' (or 'skin relay') for person manually copying information between systems of different classification between which there is no (approved) automated data transfer or there is a need for a human decision which information can be released.
In English the term used is typically 'swivel chair'.

That's a better term for so-called 'vegan alternatives', which apparently always have to compare it to real meat, for lack of imagination.
If you need a term for someone who facilitates AI, while knowing next to nothing, call them an 'AIdiot'.@wordstitcher @histoftech “meat proxy” doesn’t have the ableist baggage of terms derived from “idiot”.

@histoftech @vico and if the intended recipient is an ai, the whole system is a meatloaf

@histoftech I feel like the words "without reading, understanding, or validating it" are extraneous and serve just to give the meat proxy wiggle room to claim they're not a meat proxy.
The definition should just be "a person who forwards AI-generated text, code, or other output".
@dalias @histoftech true, whenever someone is called out for LLM use, they always downplay it and insist they totally reviewed everything, or only used it for xyz and not the Really Important Work (and of course this is a lie)

@peteriskrisjanis @histoftech When operating flights, the term "wet" is used, as in "wet lease" (hiring a flight with the crew inside). "Wet proxy"?

@histoftech
if you can imagine the same dish but without anyone having their throat slit and bleeding to death, then the lack of imagination is less with the #vegan eating it and more with the #necrovore who is unable to imagine not eating the corpses of the young.
