Jesus fucking christ finally someone actually tested AI performance before assuming that it would do everything faster and better than a human for cheaper, setting targets accordingly, and letting staff burn themselves out
As part of a test run for Australia's corporate regulator, AI was used to summarise submissions made by the public. The trial found that AI performed worse in every metric compared with humans. Assessors suggested AI would make more work for people, not less. www.crikey.com.au/20...
A test of AI for Australia's corporate regulator found that the technology might actually make more work for people, not less.
CIOs won’t care. Most are dumb as stumps.
I just scanned an article reviewing how poorly AI did on mammography reads, and how it also hurt radiologists’ accuracy levels. Of course I didn’t bookmark it 🤦🏻♀️
But it's unfair to judge AI by what it can do NOW instead of what it WILL be able to do at some time in the future that's probably VERY soon!
AI tools have been used to justify thousands of layoffs across multiple sectors, but will these businesses acknowledge their mistake? No, they will try to cover it up with more corporate bullshit. 🤬
Tech bros pivot excitedly to ‘AI would make more work for people, not less’.
Boooo! Where is their sense of financially unprofitable, environmentally devastating and wildy irresponsible adventure?!
Augment (really assist) is the way, not all or nothing. It’s just simulation. All this AI intelligence testing is giving me a headache
This took off for some reason! If you want to hire a human to do a good job instead of a robot to do a bad job, I'm now on the market for UX or PM roles at the Lead+ level.
This has been the stunner for me, rather than the hype. Every previous piece of workplace tech has involved at least some evaluation, pretense at negotiation, and awareness that change impacts productivity. Not this stuff. It's wild, and it's reaping interaction driven by self-preservation.
