      Yes. And it’s the best run study about that thing out there.

      What isn’t saying much. You shouldn’t take conclusions from a single small study. You shouldn’t conclude they improve anything either.

      Upgrade your plan to continue

      Upgrade, continue, not 5 mins later…

      You have run out of your current tier tokens, please wait 4 hrs or, upgrade to the super ultimate plan.

      Note: I nearly died laughing as LTT tried to put a gaming PC together using ChatGPT, good thing there were no cinder block walls nearby. First tier sucked, paid for second tier, it was a tiny bit better, then had to upgrade to the top tier and I think it was ~$130C/month

    I once spent a solid work week doing nothing but read webcomics, keep colleagues from working by walking around to chat with them and go to lunch. People are so much more productive in the office, right?

      I had a job where I was made to “look busy” by carrying around a clipboard. I pretended to look at shelves as if I were writing down product information, but I was actually doodling and writing down story ideas.

      Prior to that, I would legit look up product information, so that I could better inform the customers who asked me questions. But management didn’t like seeing me standing at a computer and told me to stop. Ah well, malicious compliance it is.

      I’m sure you know this but it’s about control and the middle manager emotional validation of seeing a bunch of people “working” at their stations.

      I also do only the minimum required to keep my job, just like how they pay the absolute minimum to prevent me from quitting. It’s just business. It’s not like there’s a reward for working harder.

    AI doesn’t earn a wage, so in short order companies will lose interest in an AI only work force. They’ll get bored without their favorite pastime, wage theft

    All my projects at work are low priority and low pressure, with no time constraints. I’m setting up a Pathfinder campaign
