Something I’ve learned in the corporate world is biz bros HAAATE when their industry is subject to “commoditization.” That’s their buzz for ‘waahhhh, our competitors are competing / any differentiation or advantage we had is gone, so we can’t overcharge anymore’
ANYWAY. All of this #AIshit? It’s already mostly commoditized. Some outliers, sure. But that’s got to mean we’re in a bubble, right?

Totally bizarre how "I used AI" in every context except at work results in [deserved] scorn.
But talk about outsourcing your expertise to a stupid machine to the bosses at work and it's met with applause... From the leaders. Peers know better and are deeply skeptic.

"Sorry for the duplicate meeting invite. I used copilot for the first one, and it missed a bunch of people. It won't let me delete the first one."

I've been told to get the premium version of Copilot at work. OK fine whatever. So as I fill out the form I have to check a bunch of boxes that say I'll crosscheck any results and I agree not to trust it with important work and bla bla bla.
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?!?!

I got scolded for taking and distributing meeting notes manually. "That's what we have AI for."
Yeah, OK. I've tried. The AI notes suck, mine rock. Whatever. I'd rather take my own notes than edit some dumb machine's.

ENG: Corporate overlords want us to feed Ai, not just by storing everything in their mega servers and data centers ( euphemistically called "the cloud"), but now by making it really expensive not to create content right there. Watch the vid, boost and please: do not feed the corporate monster...
ESP: Los amos corporativos quieren que alimentemos a Ai, no sólo almacenando todo en sus megaservidores y data centers (eufemísticamente llamados "la nube"), sino disparando el costo de crear contenido fuera de ellos. Mira el vídeo, compartelo y, por favor, no alimentes al monstruo corporativo...

Yesterday I hosted a call with a ton of Directors and VPs. One of the updates brought was on a massive capital purchase from a supplier in Canada. I inquired about tariffs and they looked at me like I was nuts. "Uh, we already paid for the order before the tariffs." [Fun story! That's not how it works.]
Me thinks they are in denial, and in for a very expensive shock. Guess we'll see.

Real talk.
How often do you accidentally reply "go tit" in teams/slack?

I used to be super judgmental of folks who would joke about winning the lottery and quitting their job with no notice. But nowadays I think I’d do just that. And with little remorse.
As a consolation I think I’d send my immediate teammates a few grand each as a sort of “sorry my quitting made things slightly more difficult for you” breakup prize.
I’m not sure if this is growth or regression? 😂
