You don't even have to fire anybody because no one's going to check, they just see AI and mash BUY.

I’m using chatgpt to help me do my performance review because I loving hate doing it and this years it’s even worse than usual due to issues beyond my control I always get “meets expectations” anyway despite refusing promotions and getting max bonus every year so you know it’s bull poo poo anyway

in factors not involving noble progress in human communication that i expect gpt models to help us out in: the end of writing lengthy bits of text that everyone involved knows means nothing. *bulk* words being rendered worthless. a blessing on education and the effectiveness of management (though probably not the kind of person presently inhabiting the roles) both.

I can't wait until virtual assistants integrate gpt and we start seeing videos of people's phones spewing deranged nonsense in an audible voice
