&lt;p>If CEOs could, they&amp;rsquo;d fire all their employees and replace them with obedient, efficient robots. Unfortunately for them, the technology isn&amp;rsquo;t quite there yet.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>In order to get there, they need to provide their crony AI researchers with high-quality feedback from the people they&amp;rsquo;re trying to replace. So how do they go about convincing their employees to hand over their feedback?&lt;/p>
&lt;p>The answer, it seems, is by forcing all employees to use it. They&amp;rsquo;re even refusing to hire people who don&amp;rsquo;t want to use AI.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>By forcing everyone to use AI, they&amp;rsquo;re putting them in a position where they now need to provide feedback in order to make their lives easier. When the AI makes a mistake, a frustrated employee feels compelled to complain about it. &lt;em>Each complaint moves us one inch closer to AGI, and therefore, your replacement.&lt;/em>&lt;/p>
&lt;p>So how do we stop, or at least slow down, this march?&lt;/p>
&lt;p>As an employee, if you&amp;rsquo;re forced to use AI, then go ahead and use it (it might even make your life easier) but only give them low-quality feedback. For example, feel free to complain about spelling mistakes, but avoid pointing out logical errors. The best kind of feedback they&amp;rsquo;re looking for are concrete examples of when you gave the AI a problem, and it gave a different output than what you were expecting.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>By only giving them low-quality feedback, you&amp;rsquo;re keeping the AI just smart enough to do your own grunt work, but just dumb enough so it doesn&amp;rsquo;t replace you.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Welcome</title><link>https://gibbons.top/2025/07/10/welcome/</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gibbons.top/2025/07/10/welcome/</guid><description>&lt;p>Welcome to my blog.&lt;/p>
