And explained that he was using AI to do a part of the job that needs to be done by humans, because it helps them figure is the solution.

AI slop can be bad but this Bradley doesn’t understand that businesses exist to make money.

This is generally done by making a quality product, not a pile of shit.

You can get awry with selling people shit, if you charge shit prices. But the kind of assholes described in the article are gonna try to sell shit at AAA prices. Then they are gonna blame their team for not AIing hard enough.

Shot in officer involved shooting?

Shot by a police officer.

As I understand it, these sweatshop jobs do resist the standard of living in the areas they are in. The people there don’t have the option to work a job that we would consider good. They work the job we consider terrible, and they get paid more than they would doing other jobs.

To make a moral judgement, we must balance between “terrible working conditions, no protections, maximum wealth extraction,” on the one hand, and “no infrastructure, no job, no money” on the other. Sadly, there is no profit in making the world better for everyone.

Are you using the US or China as your “here?” Because I don’t think it’s quite that bad in the US, but I don’t think anyone blames the voters in China.

I think it refers to being being out at work, or at a major event.

If I shit myself at work, I’m going home. I’m not coming back, either.

If I’m out hiking, same again.

If i’m running errands, I might have to go back out to finish them. The groceries aren’t gonna buy themselves, and now I really have to do the laundry.

Right. They are just gonna let anyone sell anything.

My wife is artsy, and I’m sciency. Maybe we can go into snake oil.

Ah, you forget the alternative. Instead of quicker review, we could just reduce oversight, and remove safety regulations.

Agreed, but that was kind of the premise of the discussion, I think.

Unless you have a keylogger installed.

To a certain extent, yes.

I used to do a dirty job. I spent most days trying hard to minimize the amount of grime I got on my hands. Some days it got past the wrist, despite my best efforts, and at that point, I would just give up and dive in.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

If I’m gonna be shit on for being unethical no matter what I do, (because that is no option to not consume under capitalism for most of us) I might as well be unethical in a way that brings me a little happiness.

This is also a lovely example of why it can be risky to damn with too broad a brush.

In in a similar boat. All I can do is bail as hard as I can.

Bones in the Ocean hurts me in ways that it has no business doing so.

I’ve never suffered a loss of any great magnitude. I’ve never even been to sea, though I desperately wish I had been.

Some people just process these things better by forcing themselves to put them into words. Journals, for some people are not written to be read, but to be written.

I was like they in high school. Wrote out my thoughts. Lose-leaf paper in my binder with me other school stuff, so they didn’t survive more than a few months. But the writing was the point. No-one was ever going to read them, not even me.

And older millennials, in some cases.

if you have legitimate concerns about the government coming after you, you simply do not keep a diary. At all. Not even one where you promise not to write anything incriminating.

So the people upset about the wrongdoing can be punished, but the people who wrongdid are not able to be punished?

Fascinating.

No, just read the article. I don’t like to watch videos for informative that can be written down.

Work the extra information, that does make it worse.

If pancakes aren’t saiting you, then you need to eat more of them.

But seriously, it’s just a case of what you’re used to.

In my experience, bacon and pancakes take a fair bit of time to make, but not a great deal of effort or attention. They are perfect for a lazy Saturday morning, and I can talk and socialize with the cook while they are being prepared, or as the cook while I prepare them. Compare to dinner which is either a whole production that keeps me in the kitchen and requires my attention, or tossing something frozen in the oven for an hour.
