| schestowitz[TR2] | Question: if an AI does the same job several times worse than a human being, have you really replaced that job? Or is this just a cut without concerns about consequences? | Nov 18 22:01 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | On most AI projects they never measure quality or compare it to the people replaced. | Nov 18 22:01 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This is like saying they a 1st class seat on Delta has been replaced with a "basic minus" seat on bankrupt Spirit airlines. Are they really fungible? Would you be fine paying first class prices for a seat on Spirit? That is how we "replace" jobs with AI today. Marginal quality at best; vastly worse than an experienced human; powered by a lack of valid metrics - more BS "OKRs" that measure nothing meaningful. | Nov 18 22:01 |
