It's pretty accurate, AI and every other nonsensical idea in the IT world is making everything worse because all the big bosses want to see AI take off.
Baby Boomers destroyed the world and hated the Internet Gen X and the very oldest of millennials want to see AI take over.. They're now aware that AI will take their jobs too.
Gen Z and younger millennials are using AI daily.
I am 37 years old, I work in IT support.. I know now to Google things, I know how to talk to people.. So I don't need AI.
Yes yes I'm very very aware how great AI is for science and medicine.. I'm not in either of those fields so I don't need AI.
I have some news for you, here is a real story.
I'm a programmer, a pretty good one, I have built real products worth millions of dollars and I'm doing alright. I'm no rockstar, I'm no pundit.
I have a raspberry pi connected to a touchscreen I use for home automation, it's a nice little home IT project, I don't really spend a lot of time on it. It's a hobby and something to walkthrough/demo/make available for the kids to hack on.
I wanted to tighten up the install, get automatic updates running, get it in full kiosk mode and add a couple features. Nice little Saturday project, figured it take a couple hours on the outside, hardest part would be mapping the touchscreen again.
Claude did it for me in 20 minutes. So I got to spend an hour and a half thinking of features I wanted to include, pretty great for me! Pretty great for IT! Need doesn't enter into it.
Maybe not great if your boss is a pinhead.
That's actually really cool. All I can think of with AI is how many of the users I support are going to start throwing critical, private customer data into it asking for a recap.. Completely unaware of how it's going to store that data
I've wondered about ai in research, is it actually ai or s it more like machine learning?
