"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I am the one not accepting their work due to how they’re doing it, and it’s getting extremely annoying
So you're saying you're becoming a problem for business velocity. 🤔🤔🤔🤭
How are they getting retained if their work is getting rejected so often?
Don’t ask me, that’s above my pay grade
If the people above your pay grade aren't better than you, there is no scope for growth.
Don’t I know it.
I have personal reasons for sticking around. But the biggest ones at this point are how shit the job market is currently, and the fact that I get a sabbatical next spring. After that hits, assuming the job market recovers a bit, I’m planning on fucking off.
Fair enough.
At the end of the day, as frustrating as management is, I can usually work around it, and the mission (increasing effectiveness of cancer treatments) is still bar none the most fulfilling goal that I’ve participated in over the course of my career to date. But still, yeah… some days, it’s really frustrating.
God bless you
