The 50,000+ dead in Gaza didn't get a trial either.

As someone who has lived there over 20 years... yeah it is. New Orleans is the only thing redeeming about the state and it's only because of the people who live there, even the local government is totally and openly corrupt

This is something Sam Altman would say

Article isn't the best written but the actual study is great:

Yeah exactly, I can't say whether they looked over it before or just did a bad job copying, but there was still an opportunity to fix it after that.

From my perspective, regardless of what goes into a work email, I'm giving it one last look over before I actually hit the send button

That is extremely fair lol

I've been at a few different places, including law firms, and they treat all written communication like it is top secret war plans. No AI of any kind because even tiny hallucinations can cost them a case

Honestly my main gripe with this particular example is the carelessness, not the use of AI to begin with. And in some places I've worked (definitely not all) other employees, including managers, do really care about one another and when they get sick. It makes going to work so much easier when everyone is nice to each other. And when there is genuine sympathy I find people are less likely to call out sick as an excuse for something else because they're not scared to ask for time when they really need it for something personal.

I'm not saying he had to write a novel or anything, but it would be such minimal effort to take a quick look over the email before hitting send. Especially in a case where he's at least trying to show some genuine human empathy and compassion.

Using an LLM is less of an issue than how it was used. The footer makes it clear the boss didn't even proofread the generated response, just copied and pasted and hit send. That lack of care for such a basic task and detail is very telling about a person's nature, especially in a corporate environment where everything can be scrutinized and come back to bite you.

This is a really bad take my guy. In a business setting the details are important, and so is accountability. If you are using chatgpt to write emails and just copying/pasting responses you might miss it allowing or agreeing to something that you didn't mean to, like how long someone can take off and/or the overall urgency. And if you then have to go back and forth to tweak the tone and details with an LLM, you are probably wasting more time than just writing the couple of sentences yourself.

You can't use "oh but an LLM wrote this it wasn't exactly what I meant to say" as an excuse when you get called out on something in a corporate setting. And by their very nature an LLM can never say exactly what you meant to say.

Without a doubt, I say there should be a cap on personal wealth, say 1 billion, because I can't really see why one person would ever need more than that to live comfortably. Then every dollar made over that goes straight to the federal government.

Essentially a new income tax bracket for only the wealthiest of individuals that is permanently set at 100%

She is such a delightful person and a gift to the world

Props for a legitimate unpopular opinion! I do disagree, but I guess that is the point lol
