The first time you get the call: “Hey, how was your day?”

“…what’s happening!?”

Well, that shorthand just made it into the lexicon

Then stand back up, and pee!

Government - great at research, terrible at generation. If you ask it to find and summarise laws and regulation, does a great job, quotes info, can even generate reasonable overviews with a handhold.

Ask it to generate anything that isn’t directly quoted in a specific doc and it goes WILD. Even with some solid training in prompt engineering, it makes you work for focused outputs unless you give it clear everything (data, prompt, target template, revision and scoring process). But once the workflow has been solidly validated a few times I’d rate it “usable”.

Hahaha plan my future?! Reflect on surviving tomorrow 😬

True, but clearly you’ve never slashed a chicken in Zelda. Unleashing hell’s fury is also pretty powerful

I love this post explicitly because it is so absurd. What!? 😂

Intelligence is knowing it will bring you power. Wisdom is knowing that it’s far too light to be effective.

It doesn’t help that stuffy that McKinnon missed an open netter. That toy is gonna learn the meaning of present and immediate danger

Mmm not that I’m aware of. Different provinces have different ages of majority (ie. 19 in Ontario and BC, 18 in others), but I haven’t heard of no cigarettes until 21. Granted, haven’t been paying attention, that’s in the rear view 🫠

… again

I recently completed a fairly complex implementation training in government for a team of non-technical users, including agents, agentic workflows, some RAG, and small-scale enterprise app deployments.

I find it a very cool technology, but it is dumb yet. When unbounded, AI does some cool stuff. But building for complex workflows, I find, has resulted in a mixed bag of results. Very specific functions, such as mining data patterns, it is not bad at. But add gray area and it kind of takes stabs in the dark, much like a badly defined Web search.

Even our technical teams sell it as a 10-20% increase in efficiency, not a firesale position replacement. And they’re mandated to adopt and distribute it as widely through govt as possible.

In short, I think this is a fair assessment lol AI may replace us one day, but the models are far too new yet

Only if you use it as a smart tv - I just never signed the user agreements, and now have a big TV with OLED. I switch to the source I want - off I go. Television can still just be television!

I hear they released a single “gold edition” T-Rex with adorable little dragon wings on its back. Fluffy, of course

Perhaps paradoxically, this might have turned out to be an advantage rather than a drawback

Honestly I think this is just a good summary of console players. I’m not young, but I play console, and don’t think about PC… ever. I’m happy PC players found their niche, I’m happy with mine, let’s talk about the games we love!

Ageeed. If random burglar, dud cameras and the “secured by” lawn signs are plenty effective. The appearance of security is a sufficient deterrent for all but determined robbers, or those targeting you specifically (where a camera will not do anything for prevention anyway).
