I really think that the term "Reverse Centaur" is underused (www.youtube.com)

I think that term is way better at describing what's happening.

... before we start talking about "Soul-sucking 12 hour shifts".

Centaur is also underused. Not a lot of centaurs around.

Doctorow is stuck in his own techno world, and it's difficult to relate to the masses. I've been "in IT" for a long time too and have never heard the "centaur metaphor" before.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
