Subscriptions? You idiots are paying for this shit?

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 1 points 16 hours ago

All the time at work. Free tier and paid. Translate shit from foreign customers. Extract text from screen shots. There’s lots of uses, just like any other tool. But it’s a tool, it’s not fucking magic or the devil. Just a tool.

Businesses do and try to get employees to use it... Stupid

[–] sfgifz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well the fucked up part is businesses also want to see how well their "investment" AI is doing, which means tracking how much employees use the AI and other cooked up metrics. You can't get away from it no matter how irritating it makes your job and life.

Its infuriating because now every single meeting is "BLARGH HOW CAN WE MAKE DA AI DO THIS? HOW CAN WE UTILIZE THE AI???!!!"
