I accidently started a trend among a certain group of being early to the meeting because I was worried about being late. So, instead of getting ten minutes to mentally prepare with a book or podcast, it became asinine small talk. Now I’ve just gotten better at being ten minutes early without signing in and setting a two minute timer on my phone to log into the chat. Now they complain I’m not chatting with them. Why can’t they understand I’d never choose to interact with them, this is work.
And yet people will continue to argue that llms are demonstrating understanding and problem solving. This shit is just Eliza on steroids. I’m not saying it didn’t require skill or knowledge to create, but it is in no way close to what it is being billed as.
