I hate how quickly “AI” has been adopted for tasks it is wholly incapable of doing well, merely fast.
This isn’t even a new thing. They just attached “AI” as a tagline for attention.
They’ve been using computers to automate going through resumes for eons at this point.
I don’t even really like people using AI to describe LLMs, it’s not really an AI. It has no agency, it’s basically a really complex copy and paste machine.
Ask Jeeves was better.
How was ask Jeeves so good for such a short time
AI doesn’t require agency. It just needs to show some intelligence in some areas.
It could be new. I’m sure there are loads of new start ups offering shitty ‘AI’ powered solutions that crappy c-suites are switching to because of buzzwords.
It’s even more annoying that this was so predictable. Big money wants AI to compete with workers do bad that they use it for exactly that even when it isn‘t capable. It doesn‘t matter if they lose productivity as long as it‘s a pain in the ass for you and me.
Survival of the fittest. Those companies will either change their ways or be overtaken by the others.
How much damage will they do in the mean time, though?
