@lordbowlich @jzb everyone attacks TPS reports but, at least in my small sample size, the overwhelming majority of this isn’t “bullshit jobs.” It’s a symptom of regulations, information gathering, under resourcing, and, critically, domains you aren’t a master of. Many professions are filled with people whose conceit leads them to believe they understand the work of everyone else better than those people do themselves.

@jzb that’s fair. I think it’s impossible for any tool to not have both a worker freedom use and a worker subjugation use. It often depends on who gets there first and is correlated with privilege.

@jzb I agree with you, but I also say, "Why not both?" While one is not good, the two can coexist.

What I think the AI Boosters and AI Detractors forget is that there is a group of folks quietly using this as a tool to retake their lives. Take a look at the various "over employed" Reddits as an example.

This doesn't get rid of the valid criticisms of the AI companies and resource concerns.
