Brandon Taylor: how I'm taking notes (for now)

14 November 2024

“As more and more AI gets marketed shoved down our collective throats, the accompanying benefits are often couched in terms of speed as an unalloyed good: “I did this in X minutes using Copilot.” That tells me nothing about why you chose the shortcut. Was it a tedious task like reformatting data? Or was it something that required experience, and creativity, and that would have required too much of you to acquire through traditional means?”

A really good piece that takes some great quotes to make a thoughtful piece on AI. I'm with Mark, I'm not sure how I feel about AI, but I do know that most the ways big tech want me to feel aren't it. And I really, really wish that more people were talking about the costs of it, because they are great but hidden—just like getting fast stuff from Amazon has a cost for someone, it just may not be you.

Hi.
