I like #bruceschneir's work Vs gym metaphor here: Should You Use AI for a Task?

@stsquad@mastodon.org.uk @gregkh@kernel.social I agree to some degree with this. However the article falls into the same trap my boss does of thinking all work that he doesn't like is "work" and only the interesting-to-him work could be "gym." To say technical writing and corporate logos aren't worthy of exercising your craft will leave you with terrible documentation and logos shaped like butt holes. So, no, work/gym is too risky. The ai user will user ai for all tasks they don't like. That won't match the work/gym split.
