@troed@swecyb.com @briankrebs@infosec.exchange >Stupid US venture capitalism. I'm European. I don't know of a single person having "AI" forced upon them. On the contrary, at all places I consult it's the workers who try to convince their managers to be able to use it. Once again, anecdotal evidence. I'm not sure what kind of bubble you live in but it's impressive. Nearly every web service and company is now touting how they've integrated GenAI. It's not just an American thing. And, hundreds of thousands have been laid off globally to make room for GenAI. Speaking of the EU, here is a recent post by the EU Commission on how Europe must adopt GenAI: https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@EUCommission/116883318986934764 >They are scaling back when the costs stop being subsidized. They're not scaling back on the technology itself. Yes, they are scaling back. Microsoft is restricting access to various models to its employees. Salesforce announced that they were reverting a GenAI support bot that they had deployed. Amazon recently had to address quality control issues around harmful outages causes by overly zealous GenAI technology deployment. Meta/Facebook was just covered in the news to have canceled a project where they aimed to replace nearly 50% of their workforce with GenAI. >That's just plainly not true. You do realize you're posting completely unsourced statements and claim that they're true and I must spend time on countering them? It is apparent to anyone monitoring society. Just open the news and you'll see how experts are having to clean up messes created by GenAI. Courtrooms are increasingly being inundated with GenAI crazed legal briefs. Governments are wasting time correcting policies and law submissions filled with inaccuracies. Teachers are having to debate students that cite GenAI results as fact, and sometimes vice versa. Open source projects are being swamped with fake or bad code submissions. On an anecdotal level? I find that the quality of content from peers that rely on GenAI tend to be of lower quality.

    @seanm@infosec.exchange "Once again, anecdotal evidence" vs "It is apparent to anyone monitoring society" I'll wait for you to do some introspecting now.
