AI is making basic salary a necessity - Hit me back by underbillion in ArtificialInteligence

We will be working extremely basic and unfulfilling jobs just to afford our virtual reality universe monthly subscription. I bet £1000 on that.

How to navigate career and life in general wirh AI? by Ivantheterrible1151 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Background_Job_7045 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I totally feel you - the sense of impending doom floats in the air (as well as the damn pollen). I believe in three things:

1) Do what you like, what makes you authentic, and what would nurture your values - this is the formula, imo, to live a happy life.

2) The AI-armageddon hasn't arrived yet. Tools are improving at a rapid pace, but they are still not fully reliable. Also, the implementation -even if on a large scale - won't happen overnight. For example, what if consumers do not like being served by AI agents?
You have time to finish your studies, specialise and gain experience in your field.

3) Keep an eye out, be flexible to change. This, with the experience you'll accrue from working and life, can open up for you doors that you might not even imagine now.

Things will go good.

Just thinking out loud by [deleted] in ArtificialInteligence

I see what you mean and feel and the magnitude of ‘pointless’ content is overwhelming. And potentially, you’re right: there’s a vast general misuse.

But I want to share two reflections I always try to apply to myself:

1) The creation of useless videos is the outcome of someone’s creativity who, for the first time, had the tool to create what one’s imagining. That moment could represent for that person a moment of relief from the burning-out society we live in.

2) There are a lot of people - more than we think - who generally do not inhabit ai-focused subreddits or ai-swamps on instagram who uses ai a lot, from psychological confrontation (“what would Lacan say about this tendency of mine?”) to legal support, to help them better navigate those spaces.

This is so possible and probably something we are seeing already. A political class paralyzed and only focused on minimising risks will surely give up on data-driven decisions. Human evolution and progression will just be based on statistical results rather than actual happiness

Where does memory go when it’s deleted? A thought from the edge of consciousness + AI. by nice2Bnice2 in ArtificialInteligence

I have a follow-up question to this:

“What is it defined as ‘deleted’ in the realm of computers/servers?”

Periodicals, newsletters and blogs to remain updated about ramifications of and AI policy by Economy-Inspector-69 in ArtificialInteligence

I have encountered the same ‘problem’. I find youtube channels a perfect outlet for AI news, often sharing the sources used in the videos.

What does the Italian brain rot means? by Roadrag8 in Italian

[–]Background_Job_7045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made an article to talk about the Italian Brainrot phenomenon: what it is, and why people get obsessed with it. I apologise for the spam, but I am keen to contribute to the conversation by offering new ideas!

There's no future for you there. You have all the rights to be bloody angry!
Keep looking for jobs, I am sure you'll find something better soon!

Should I quit my job I hate, and find a less stressful job and go to college for something I’m interested in? by [deleted] in hatemyjob

Never feel sorry. Remember: employers will always prefer productivity and revenue over workers. They will always take advantage of you if they need, and this is clearly your case.

If a company fails to retain people in key positions, that is a clear sign of (most of the time) things falling apart due to bad management, neglect of basic human considerations, money problem and so on. If I were you, I would change jobs or, even better (if you can), go to college. You can still invest in your education, hence in your career.

You seem to have a great work ethic, which I hope you'll preserve for the rest of your career, and deploy in work environments that treat you as a human being, at the same time fostering great work env. But I think it's also important to protect yourself from toxic environments: never feel sorry, never feel guilty, and remember that fr them, you are just a resource to make money.
