      “My one condition for this interview - I must be referred to with my President title in full, not shortened to VP. People always focus on the ‘executive’ part and forget the President part. It’s important.”

    wild that this has basically become “you guys need to take some personal responsibility and use AI in a way that is useful and makes us a return on our insane investment”

    We were recently forced to take AI training at work and this was exactly one of the training scenarios used, a financial analyst who needs to send a report to the CFO could just dump all the documents into Gemini and send the output out so that they didnt have to spend any time actually reading the corporate financial reports. I was horrified when I heard it but apparently we’re all supposed to have faith in our new AI overlords and put the pedal to the metal accelerating toward iur own demise.
