A woman sitting at her computer tells a man A.I. MAKES A SINGLE BULLET POINT OUT OF THIS LONG EMAIL I CAN PRETEND I READ.

The question is: the bullet point written and the bullet point read will differ.
It’s like file compression, but the other way round.
And it’s not lossless.
Oh geez, early on in my current career I sent a one-paragraph project report, because it had been very little work and not complex.
My then manager loved his buzzwords and long pointless meetings, he told me my report wasn’t adequate even though it had all the relevant info.
So, I just added a pile of extra bullshit that didn’t say anything at all. And that fucker loved it.
I went and found another job soon afterwards.
And they’ll claim productivity was increased on both ends
That’ll be ten thousand dollars and your water supply please
cash or card?
And the end bullet point is also wrong!
So was the long list.
It’s like that game were you whisper into one persons ear and they pass in on. By the end the message is completely different.
Why did I read this as “piss in it”?
Maybe that helps with understandability even… 🤔
Except the telephone is just the LLM where you tell the LLM something and it regurgitates some BS.
Management loves AI because management’s job is to write emails and reports, not to actually communicate meaningful information.
The inverted compression algorithm
*inverted lossy compression
Is that the in to out method?
It inflates text and the economy at the same time!
Normalise terse and succinct communication and life will be less fucking stupid. The problem does not reside in the tool but in our garbage culture of waste.
“Please run the formatter so the checks pass on the PR” is a perfectly fine and polite statement. Some people act like they’re being attacked.
And the one bullet point that comes out was not the one bullet point the original person put in!
So is that what they call “garbage in, garbage out”?
If a job can be done by AI it’s probably a bullshit job.
