alt Hacker NewsI work under the assumption that the primary audience of everything I write at work is an AI. Managers will take what I send and have it summarized and evaluated by some chatbot or agent. (Of course, I cannot send them the summary myself.)
So like ATS checkers for resumes, I find myself needing an AI checker for my text.
Ultimately, we will have AI write everything for another AI to parse, which will be a massive waste of energy. If only there was some agreed-upon set of rules, structures, standards, and procedures to facilitate a more efficient communication...

This is the focus of my new startup, which uses a single-layer model to transform bullet points into bullet points. Please invest in IdentityMatrixLLM, LLC, etc.
I go through this with my vendor budgets and contract negotiations right now. We are encouraged to put all their proposals in AI and have it refute each point. I know for a fact they are putting my negotiations in their own AI and having it counter-propose my points. It's an arms race of my AI fighting against their AI. Where does it end.
I’m too lazy to tell the AI what I want to say, then copy and send its output.
I just type what I want to say and hit send. YOLO
I'll argue there's potentially a standards based advantage at the end when this all shakes out.
It will probably take a couple hundred years but I'm pretty sure I'm right about this :)
I have a hard time trying to find any reasons for the S̶k̶y̶n̶e̶t̶ owners of the Skynet not to get rid of that walking bipedal inefficiency called human.
API or die /s.
Seriously, though, fuck that shit!..
If that is your manager, do so, sure. But make sure your manager is "such a manager".
If I was your manager, and you sent me your seventeen page AI generated thing coz you think I'm just gonna summarize anyway and I expect something long: You misread me.
I make a point all the time to everyone that won't listen, to not send me walls of text. I'm not gonna read them. I'm gonna ignore them, close your bug reports until I can understand them because you spent the time to make them short and legible. If you use AI for that, I don't care. But I better have something short and that when I read it makes actual sense and when I verify it, holds up. If I wanted to just ask AI, I'd do it myself. You have to "value add" to the AI if you want to be valuable yourself.
