When do we get AI to replace junior to middle management at the corporate and government levels? Might almost enjoy watching that unfold.

C suites everywhere are hard up about AI because they think they can use it to replace workers, and what is actually going to happen is their half-assed AI solution is going to result in either a massive breach or an accident and there will be nobody to be held accountable.

Yeah this is basically where I fall on the issue. Standard practice of management wanting to pay for the minimum amount of labor and nothing more:

Its evil in the hyper capitalist sense. They openly do not care who they crush, and there is a single Disney child star who wasn't abused to being hosed up beyond belief(ben shapiros awesome cousin lol)

Mara Wilson is awesome, but I wouldn’t say Disney didn’t crush her too. She’s talked a lot about her OCD and its relationship with being a child star, or the hyper sexualization she experienced growing up.

And they absolutely should not budge on this point, because as soon as possible, production companies will attempt to replace writers with AI, and in fact they're probably already trying to train AI bots to barf out scripts.

AI isn't going anywhere at this point, ChatGPT is very useful. This just accelerates a trend thats happened with the internet and tech companies of increased productivity leading to lower headcount, concentrating rewards in fewer hands. This trend is here, its been happening, blocking AI won't stop it.

The conversation needs to be less about stopping AI from putting people out of work and more about things like basic income, redistribution, and fewer work hours to accommodate. Supplementing humans with AI input and AI with human input leads to large gains.

Weak execution.

They tried to make it, as the youths say, æsthetic, but it’s too small to read on a phone’s screen.

Also, it’s just kind of weird that it’s typeset on a notepad. Get someone with decent handwriting to write it down.

Those are just modern versions of cheap vaudeville, familiar stock characters doing simple things that occupy an audience for half an hour without requiring thought or engagement. Very few entertainment options on that scale, especially when they need to appeal to different cultures & languages, are going to take risks or challenge the viewer. Why do you think the Guardians of the Galaxy are always dancing or the Mandalorian is outnumbered but might just find a way to win for the 30th consecutive episode?

I’m just glad there is still oxygen for niche stuff like I think you should leave or Garth Marenghi, without being required to have a large audience to exist.
