> You wouldn't go around crusading against food because you're obese.

My eateries I step into are met with revulsion at the temples to sugary carbohydrates they've become.

> about 40.3% of US adults aged 20 and older were obese between 2021 and 2023

Prey your analogy to food does not hold, or else, we're on track for 40% of americans to acquiring mental disabilities.

Oh, we for sure are, because much like America's social structure pushes people to obesity with overwork and constant stress, that same social structure will push people to use AI blindly to to keep up with brutal quotas set by their employers.

  • I'm quite strongly anti-AI, but surely the sudden shift to pushing agentic AI means less direct interaction with the models required?

    From what I see from the breathless hype, treating it like a member of the team is what they want instead of it just being a conversational UX for contextual queries.
