Someone does that to me and they go on the spreadsheet and I work around them every time in future. It's not worth interacting with those people.

When your spreadsheet gets full, will you change jobs or change tactic?

Switch to a DB

>But even when I talk to people, they forward my questions to AI and send me the AI’s answer. This is the killer issue. It's so profoundly saddenning, it feels like watching an adult being asked a question and calling mom to answer for them. There is something deeply disturbing in it that makes me feel I'm not talking to a self sufficient entity.

That's probably the goal

You get nothing being the go-to person vs. the person that just does the job

I think they own the company at that point.

Two months ago I responded to my nontechnical business partners asking me what do I expect from AI in the future couple of months or years - people will cherish and value in person talk and meeting other people much more and even this will hold true for minor share of human population and only until we augment human body to hide its permanent connection to AI.

I was actually thinking of how tired i was talking to real people and how refreshing AI was to talk something through with.

Most conversations with people, that center around something complicated or emotional are difficult on many levels. I have to deal with humans limited amount of patience and ego eccentric responses that can hide the actual response and require me to untie the persons emotional state diplomatically before i can get to the point.

Just having an entity i can throw concepts at with limitless patience and almost no ego, its really refreshing. The only issue I'm frustrated with is the inevitable Enshittification of these LLMs leading to advertising push or "a response was not generated" popping up whenever something too political or controversial is generated.

I don't consider the massive inflow of IA content in social media as a LLM problem as this is just the same shills that were always on these platforms using AI to increase the quality and quantity of their output, its problems we should have dealt with before AI.

I'd say even half of my Youtube feed nowadays is. 1. Find some nicher but interesting topic (e.g. some historical event like Lepanto's battle) 2. Have AI generate the content of the 20 minutes video by collecting information about it online 3. Have AI generate the video 4. Have AI generate a realistic voice to comment on the video 5. Upload it without mentioning it's all AI generated 6. Have me get mad 4 minutes into…

There is a "do not recommend this channel" option somewhere

The rate the bots are generating content / new channels is far faster than you can click on that optin.

At least the internet is not one single place, and while I can't speak for anyone I think I've managed to avoid most of the AI generated internet.

> I think I've managed to avoid most of the AI generated internet. I honestly am not sure that one can know that that is true anymore. Probably the only place left that I have any confidence in is maybe the small discords I'm in with various friend groups with <30 people that all know each other IRL.

> people that all know each other IRL

Hence my first message

Face reality my friend, Internet is now hostile to humans. Time to leave this place for good.

At least the internet is not one single place, and while I can't speak for anyone I think I've managed to avoid most of the AI generated internet.

Where are you going?

Reddit has a lot of AI generated stuff

Youtube comments are even worse.

Twitter seems 99% AI garbage

I think I need to find old school forums to discuss things.

Well, it's subtly different than a kid calling mum - kids generally do that because they're insecure, an adult using ChatGPT to answer simply can't be bothered to turn on their brain...

You had an good, psychologically plausible explanation for some individuals to over-rely on AI and... dismissed it and called them stupid. Adults are not special, they are mostly kids that got older.

Actually I didn't call them stupid, I called them lazy (and also inconsiderate, but mostly lazy).
