@jwcph @tokeriis det er (med rette) en del kurser på uni (i hvert fald IT-universitetet Kbh) om netop, hvordan man finder de korrekte beskrivelser af behov, formål og arbejdsgange - når man designer et system, det skal understøtte en ejet flere arbejdsgange. Det bliver så tit lavet med røven ude i den "virkelige verden", fordi man (og nok især cheferne, er min oplevelse) ikke mener, at mere end højniveaubeskrivelser er nødvendige.
@Laust @tokeriis - og selv højniveau-beskrivelsen er ofte forkert & adresserer enten det forkerte problem / behov, eller imødekommer det ikke.
Eller begge dele.
Jeg har udført utallige opgaver for utallige virksomheder, fra strategi & design til simpel kommunikation & ikke én eneste gang var den første beskrivelse af hvad de ønskede sig i nærheden af at være tilstrækkelig for at udføre jobbet.
Selv simple ting som "lav et SoMe-opslag om X" kræver stort set altid en uddybende samtale.

@jwcph @tokeriis præcis. Kurserne var alle en variant af "chefer og mellemledere ved intet om medarbejdernes arbejdsgange på det niveau, som du har brug for. Medarbejderne kan næsten aldrig selv beskrive arbejdsgangene præcist nok, så her er, hvordan du får fat i den viden og de informationer, det skal til."
Tilgangen var som regel baseret på antropologiske metoder. -

Tilgangen var som regel baseret på antropologiske metoder.@Laust @tokeriis Præcis - og så er det i øvrigt den primære årsag til, at automatisering næsten altid fejler, at det stadig ikke, selv med vores bedste metoder m.m., er muligt at få fyldestgørende information om arbejdet ud af medarbejderne & gjort eksplicit & repetérbar.
Det der typisk forsvinder er netop, som jeg er inde på ovenfor, beslutningslaget; det bliver ekstremt nemt overset at selv den "laveste" medarbejder træffer kvalificerede beslutninger i sit arbejde dagen lang...

@jwcph You forgot including the wrong address, because everybody apparently knows that the XYZ location moved and you didn't bother to check the AI put the right one there.

@jwcph It's just WordArt all over again, isn't it. Even the target audience matches.

@jwcph@helvede.net quick tip: @inkscape@mastodon.art is a fab tool for poster design, and even accepts raster images from e.g. unsplash which you could use as a background/border/etc as part of your design. Personally, aside form the wild level of intuitive control you can get the grid function is so useful for designing posters and stuff and getting everything aligned
disclaimer I'm definitely not a pro or anything designing stuff, I've just self-taught.....

@danimo I was gonna say - that's a pretty horrible design! Especially the headline font... yechhh.

@jwcph@helvede.net I disagree on the chosen font for the heading. But the rest is good.

@eragon You can disagree with the design decisions - but the point is that decisions were made. You can't disagree with an algorithm, because there's no intent or decisions to disagree with.

@pythno There is no font. The AI just makes up pixels that look like letters.

@jwcph And most "business people" will say "I don't have 20 minutes to waste!" just to immediately waste an entire hour trying to correct the poster by just throwing slightly different prompts to copilot or whatever AI their company allows them to use.
What a world we live in...

@ttydweller @jwcph My favorite LARP genre is when business people cosplay having important things to do.
