“I can never understand what they are saying.”
No one does. Marble mouths.
Wait until AI gets hacked or turns on the guy.
But then it doesn't tell you that it isn't either.
This is just the start...not the end of the road (unless you just got fired).
“This is just the start”
Been hearing that about AI for 40+ years. Nothing has changed.
“e-commerce”
Why am I thinking its a spam call center?
So obviously the market disagrees with you.
And the people in the C-suite want to keep getting bonuses for improving the company's 'efficiency'.
If they don’t have jobs pretending to speak engrish there they will be looking for a handout here.
On the other hand, what are people supposed to do for a living?
When does a chatbot replace the CEO?
The speak real English or Indian broken English?
Shareholders are only the excuse. The reason is bonuses for management. The greedy bastards just can’t get enough.
“So obviously the market disagrees with you.”
Nope. There is a sucker born every minute, sucker. The market also pays PE ratios of 80+, so there is that too. The stock market in no way is about investments, technology reviews, or anything you think it is. It is merely gambling that someone else will pay you more than you paid.
So no more straining to understand “Kevin” or “Sally” who are stationed in Bangalore. Instead we will be contending with a program that has no clue what it’s doing and gives wrong results some of the time but no one cares.
My advice: make sure that you have a physical presence at work, and that your job requires a physical body.
I learned this even beforehand -- during COVID, when my institution closed down and I suddenly questioned my viability. I had to make myself "useful" behind a computer all day. (Actually, it helped me to learn new skills.) Coming back to work 5 months later, I immersed myself in "hands-on" work to enhance my value.
People, especially the younger generation, who insist on working remotely and refuse to come into the office might find themselves the first to go. Out of sight, out of mind.
Okay, so some things stay the same.
I think our Xfinity smoke alarm gets sent through India. Twice I have gotten calls in my downstairs office and can’t understand the caller so I just hangup figuring it is spam.
Until my wife runs downstairs and says the fire department is here because the smoke alarm went off while she was cooking upstairs!
Disconnected the smoke alarm after the second time.
That said, you are welcome to your opinion.
Every road, every building, every vehicle you see, every house, every airplane flying over head, every job, every hospital, everything!
And ask about your preferred pronouns.
AI will be like asking a tecnical question of young people at the hardware store. You get an answer but it is wrong................
Good advice. I’m glad things worked out well for you after your institution shut down.
