People are severely overestimating the importance of AI. It's more FOMO than anything else.

Wait until you have to pay non-subsidized prices for the use of LLM's, how productive are they in reality when the real costs come in to play? You could just train and hire actual people to do the job far more accurately with some quality control?

Not denying there's some fields with great benefits from LLM's, but writing emails, answering phonecalls aren't it. LLM's cant even transcribe conversations with any proper accuracy and as a society we now trust them to make decisions.

It boggles the mind, really.

On the contrary, it does a great job with responding to work Emails! I paste in the chain and prompt it "How can I tell this person to fuck off in corporate speak?" And I haven't been fired yet! ;)

'Yet' is doing a lot there.

People notice when they get an AI generated response. It 'looks' professional, but that's not what it ever comes across as. It comes across as lazy and incompetent.

I mean, if you use the AI incompetentlyvand lazily sure? I think if you use anything incompetently and lazily you'll get that result. The trick is to not be an absolute dumbass and then you'll be fine. Know what can and cannot do well, then use it where appropriate to take advantage of the 80/20 rule.
