A slopfondler walks into a bar.
They: Hey. I found a good use of AI!
Me: No you didn't.
They: Wait let me tell you about it.
Me: Please don't. I'm begging you. Stop talking.
They: No, you'll like this.
Me: I assure you, I will not...

That's what (generative) AI is good for. -

https://jwz.org/b/yk4i@jwz Dang are you buddies with the guy who gamified Q&A and then also gamified forums? Is he planning on gamifying AI?

https://jwz.org/b/yk4i"It's like having a reference librarian!"
My Brother in Taxonomy, it is the farthest thing from that.
A reference librarian is a person with feelings, motivations and ethics, who has a goal of helping you find the answer to your question.
The chatbot is a clockwork mechanism that extrudes text optimized to make you *think* your question has been answered.
It is also a machine built by fascists with the goal of creating a dependent, de-skilled, submissive populace and ending Democracy. HTH.

https://jwz.org/b/yk4i@jwz my boss was in a meeting today talking about how obsessed she was with AI.
While someone was presenting an instrument comparison that they painstakingly put together over a week of direct work with manufacturers, she said 'That lines up with what the AI said'. And 'I could have the AI make a fancy table' and then 'You guys gather the information for the AI' I am glad I had my camera off.

@jwz I am a reference librarian and would be happy to go on any podcast and say that this is entirely accurate.

https://jwz.org/b/yk4i@jwz so funny how literally the first response to this post confirms, that it is not only a joke, but also a very brutal truths.

@ariaflame Yes *plonk*

@reijomancer @jwz A librarian will also be able to say 'I don't know, but I know where to look to help us find out.' and also 'That information isn't available in all the places I've looked. How important is it to you that I keep searching?'

@davidgerard @jwz I don’t have Bluesky so I’ll have to ask an AI agent to go look for me.
