@elston_ I doubt it, _if_, cutting edge technology and drones are used.

@DrChris Your bank?

I log in to my bank and I see income and expenses. For my small business I do not need to know more than how much things cost, how much I earn, and to make sure there's a healthy balance between the two.

I have no financial software.

I _do_ have an accountant though who types everything into some kind of system because the government demands it.

If, and only if, I need to know something I just write an email. This happens about 2-3 times per year at most.

@ChrisMayLA6 True. It is very concerning that the technical skill among the politicians is so low.

At the same time, it is also logical. The salaries paid, compared with the salaries the tech elite are getting, are so low, that the best talent does not flock to the public sector.

@ThatCrazyDude Slowly but surely. Let us not rush into anything here!

@ChrisMayLA6 Also keep in mind, that currently AI is limited in scope to LLM:s. AI is much, much more than that. OCR, voice recognition, self-driving cars, machine learning, automated cancer diagnostics etc. etc.

The thing is that those areas are clearly defined, and proven to work excellently and better than humans, so it is boring to write about.

Those things have just melted into the background and become something we interact with or use every day without thinking much about it.

@kibcol1049 Amen! But you and I keep on fighting the good fight! ;)

@kibcol1049 What about homo led companies and companies led by left handed people, and also, companies led by Sihks?

These underrepresented groups have always been a great concern of mine!

@ChrisMayLA6 I do fear that, since we have our smartphones use in fresh memory, there will be an overreaction.

AI does have its uses, and it is a beneficial technology in some places. I hope that we won't limit those cases when we react against the cases where AI has no place.

@shortstories Trumps Tacos have been very kind to me so far.

@ChrisMayLA6 foolish, and they could not take critique.

Sigh... such is the way of the honest libertarian who uses markets as tools, and not as a god. Such is the way of the long-term profit maximizer.

@ChrisMayLA6 we're currently in the stage when we idolize our new toy, without realizing the dangers.

After a couple of million (or billion) dollar mistakes, people might become interested in actually thinking through what they are doing.

Other hits of these managers, is blatant breaches of GDPR by recording all interactions with customers, without any warning at all.

Needless to say, this company is no longer a customer of mine, because I told them this was

@ChrisMayLA6 Based on what I've seen in a US company, AI has completely destroyed any capacity for critical thought, and also any capacity for reading and writing emails.

I see senior managers burping up AI slogans, when asked for their strategy, they take the question, asks an AI an burp up the answer, almost unfiltered.

Should an email with a longer text arrive, it is either ignored, or one is asked to use an AI to cut it down to a few paragraphs.

But I think, just like with smartphones,

@ChrisMayLA6 Oh, this is easy to explain. The swedish police are using palantir, and refuse to say for what. I imagine that the UK and Swedish police probably have some kind of informal network, and that swedish police acted as palantir salesmen.

@joshsutphin I think maybe there are more leftists on bluesky which makes it more of a propaganda platform, instead of a platform for discourse and learning between ideological lines.

@troed I would just point an AI to your files and instruct it only to save the interesting ones! 😎

Sweden in a nutshell. The government shall increase reading ability in order to fight desinformation.

What they forgot, was that desinformation can also be spread through text. 😎
