"Have you even CONSIDERED the productivity benefits of applying frontier models to agentic workflows," the Peace Corps guy says to a local who just keeps repeating "clean water"
@jalefkowit This is uncanny. A guy where I work was doing a presentation where he gushed about how a woman in a village in a developing county could diagnose the cause of her child’s fever and diarrhea using AI: I said it sounded like they could use clean drinking water much more than AI. Really took the wind out of the presenter’s sails but he needed a reality check.

My first thought is that excellent piece the Swedish newspapers worked on wrt Meta glasses and folks in Nairobi being the real AI. So perhaps folks there are already aware of how to use AI.

@jalefkowit So missionaries for the Technocracy now? I feel like I have some dystopian books on my shelves with this plot.

@jalefkowit blegh, maybe Peace Corps has always done this and I'm just ignorant but this institution engaging so explicitly in a corporate interest feels very gross
