  • I have heard that a lot of corps in less privacy/data sensitive fields have been strongly encouraging employees to use it to “boost throughput”, and it’s because the C-suites had An Idea that it’d be great to sign a multi-million dollar contract with MS or whatever cloud LLM provider, except nobody uses it because in many cases it’s just worse than useless, and not that many people give enough of a shit to essentially learn how to be a “prompt engineer” on top of their normal jobs.

    It’s amusingly similar to how all the RTO initiatives are actually motivated by the C-suites being super pissed that their expensive corporate real estate is a giant waste of money in many cases, despite the fact that people are often working better and more efficiently from home.
