mastodon
4.7.0-beta.1
Unmoored enjoyer of books, movies, TV, video games, music.
iOS (presently), backend (historically), and devops (accidentally). Chronically curious.
This would be more plausible if some of the worst AI boosters I know weren’t 40+ y.o. folks in leadership roles.
Maybe that’s part of the problem though. They’re old enough to use it as a power tool, but don’t realize how dangerous it is for the younger majority of their org.
@neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk It's so hard to hear them talking about these features and not think "Man, what a gift to abusers and authoritarians."

Simultaneously enjoying Indigo from @soapboxsoftware@mastodon.social and being weirded out by having my Mastodons and my Blueskies merged.
