Sigh.
New boss: “You’re good at writing notes.”
Me: “Thank you, it helps me to remember so I have been writing summaries for many years.”
New boss: “You should try CoPilot and see what it can do.”
Me: “Well I enjoy summarizing my notes, and it helps me to learn and remember.”
New boss: “Let me show you something I did in CoPilot.”
Ugh. Writing it myself helps me LEARN and REMEMBER. Why are these AI zombies so intent on changing a process that is helpful to me? Feeding notes through CoPilot won’t benefit me when it’s the act of writing that works for me.
@VeeRat Suggests said AI-Boss is a bit lacking in natural-I.

@VeeRat
This is fanboyism at its purest: everyone has to like the stuff they like as much as they do, or it calls their judgement into question. The core is a deep insecurity that must be assuaged by external validation. -

@VeeRat Holy shit I just realized this this morning, typing up a string of discord posts into a static web page. I had to pay attention to it to get it to look right, which made me realize I was reading it more than I had originally. Crazy how nature do that

@VeeRat me too. It's the act of taking notes that helps me be engaged and remember things. The noted themselves I only really use if I need to prove a point or clarify a decision that nobody remembers six months later. This is not something that AI can solve for me.

@VeeRat @drahardja I’m not sure where it’s from, but there’s an incredible quote “I’m not writing it down to remember tomorrow, I’m writing it down to remember it now!” and I think about this a lot with discussions about notes and summaries and LLMs.

@VeeRat > Ugh. Writing it myself helps me LEARN and REMEMBER.
Once written, twice learned.
Writing code, for example. It's slower than asking the pasteurized process code product generator to do it. But the code slopperizer only gives you code. Writing it yourself gives you, and any organization you work for, both code and understanding.
And I don't just mean the detailed step-by-step "this is what the code does to address some specific need" sort of understanding, though that's also true. It's also an understanding of how you got there, what tradeoffs you made (and so what you might need to address in a few weeks or months), how other people have approached a related problem, or a bit of code your code interacts with in some way, and thus how you need to handle this particular case (it'll be different for different people), and so many other kinds of learning and understanding that can't just be pulled from the code slopperizer.

@VeeRat Handwriting is hard for me. And I can't remember the things I just wrote down (unless I read them multiple times afterwards). I also can't listen to what someone is saying and create usable notes at the same time. My note-taking strategy usually involves either getting someone else to share their notes with me, or sitting down alone afterwards to write down everything I remember.
I still would not use CoPilot for note-taking because I like my notes to be accurate and on-topic!

They _literally_ don't understand what you mean. I'm the same as you in this respect. The _act_ of writing is valuable. Not the artifact writing produces but the _act_. It's valuable to me personally and I'm not going to stop just because somebody has an AI/LLM/RNG-machine buzz.

@VeeRat
The concept of just using AI to write or summarize shit for you is fucking anti science. There is neuro science that highly supports that engaging the brain thru writing is one of many ways that helps with learning and remembering.
Keep on writing!
*Also maybe we should be asking these AI zombies how much time they spent reviewing their AI writings and verifying (yeah.... verifying!) the output. From the peeps I know using AI to write for them, they don't verify what's been written 🤦♀️ -

@VeeRat The assumption that it is easier and therefore better is ludicrous

@VeeRat They're trying to make converts because it validates their own use of the tools, which they feel insecure about. It's a quasi-religious evangelical impulse.
@cstross @VeeRat The thing I have seen the most-of is Gen Z and Alpha basically pretending to use AI to make Gamm-pa Boomer Manager happy, but really just learning the ropes and making the connections with the C-Suite while also playing nice with all the Xennials who actually Do Shit.
The result is when the Boomers FINALLY retire... the youngin's will probably be given the keys and will keep the Xennials who don't suck.
Much like Intergenerational wealth advice of "Leave it to the grandkids"

As everyone knows, the process is meaningless. Only the outputs have any value.
More accurately: only the outputs can be sold for money, the process is obviously a sink of effort and salaries -

@VeeRat
Sometimes I think of this story about the early bronze age, when bronze tools were traded along the then trade hubs. That archeologists found a site from people who didn't have their own bronze technology yet, who owned one bronze axe, and several wood replicas.I think of this story, and feel a bit relieved that at least, it's not just us living now.

@VeeRat But why do you need learning and remembering when you have AI? /s
