Unclear on demonstrating c-suite soulessness....

This is the shit AI was supposed to free us to actually do ourselves

Same, entirely. Highly generic result and (extremely) telling on one's poor parenting relationship with their child.

This is one of those cases where it feels like the simple act of writing the prompt already answered the question for you.

I hate to think I would have told my AI assistant enough about my kid to describe him. And, yeah, completely a task I’d *want* to do myself.

Why the f*ck does your AI know more about your kids than you do? Why does your AI know about your kids AT ALL?

"the most probable character follows some other also most probable character" with probabilities drawn from some slice of the world's knowledge that its makers had managed to buy or steal Whoever takes the image portrayed here seriously ..... I mean, c'mon, seriously?!

By now they've exhausted all good ideas so the future can get only more ridiculous I'm half expecting them to try summoning the Dark Lord (no bad ideas in a brainstorm and all that)

AI gets rid of drudgery and if you dont like parenting you will use it to parent for you

It's really strange

Like same, I know my kid better than her digital representation AI is not the problem here

using ai to describe your kids is a weird way to say you've outsourced your own personality. if you can't distill three traits yourself, you're not using a tool, you're just letting the tool think for you.

And what an amazing use of real resources she got there 😂

I'm sure you've spent quality time with your kids. Between this and the guy who couldn't be bothered reading to his child, it's clear that they see raising their kids as a task to be assigned to others or now, to ai. I wonder if they see relationships with anyone as important in their own right.

Same. It’s great

What apps do you mean by "the apps"?

Which "apps"?

Sometimes, the hardest decisions are because the choices are so similar or the choice does not really matter. This seems like the latter.

Even setting aside the “what kind of parent couldn’t do this for their child” aspect, saying this out loud to the press so that your daughter finds out about it… holy shit, like, when the kid tells her therapist about reading this a lot is going to click into place

I does appear like some kind of troll thing.

FFS, you can’t think of three things that make your kid special?

I remember getting really stuck on homework problems as a kid, just really getting fucked up by my own brain on simple questions. So maybe I could see using AI to talk you through a visualization exercise or something to get past a block, but this is just sad.

I can come up with three words to describe my *cat's* personality

I use ai heavily but if you need ai to tell you about your kids you need to rethink your life

It's even worse if it could.

Also, "oh no I can't pick only three" is so ridiculous. Send in six. You think they're gonna fail your ten year old? Give her detention? HTF were you a CEO if you can't brainstorm some shit and narrow it down to 3? How'd you make ANY decisions?

Do you think Mayer actually did that or does she think by saying she did it gives her idiot customers permission to do so?

No kidding. Strikes me as a fake story.

Even if AI was good at this sort of thing, I really like thinking about my kids. I wouldn't want to outsource something like that.

yeah but you aren't a really shitty parent

Sounds like Marissa is high on her own supply, like, a textbook case.

well actually yes i do

honestly it's just a damning indictment of how out of touch these people are more than any commentary on AI.

Kind of funny that you don't recognize how people get sucked into outsourcing basic thinking. They are *not* asking 'is this a useful way to use AI'! It's a big problem.

Yeah but...what if you hate your children and don't want to think about them?

It’s wild to me she thought this was a difficult question like you can’t think of three things you like about your kid?
