   LLMs always seem to be good at someone else's job -- usually somebody who I treat as a cost center.

   and somehow never good at _my_ job (I am a true creator of value)

     The irony of this truism is that it is the bullshitting classes predicting AI’s mass replacement of workers who are themselves most vulnerable to replacement by a bullshit automator

     @trochee Oh, I fully expect that in the future I can outsource my shitposting to a machine so that I can spend more time on the things that matter, like reading shitposts

     @trochee It’s accessible to anyone! All you need is shamelessness and a complete inability to hear what you sound like when you speak.

     @inthehands it's provoking a certain humility in my assessment of how difficult it is to be a member of the bullshitter class

     To be fair, it's almost certainly a position earned by accident of birth, not skill

     @trochee Too many layers out of context to follow that one, I’m afraid! (Still haven’t seen The Wire)

     @inthehands Stringer Bell would eat Sand Hill Road for a light snack and stay hungry, if they didn't cling to their little "pattern recognition" clannish behavior
