I'm considering joining the catholic church specifically to make it easier to get an exemption !

So maybe if I dont want to use AI at work I can LARP that Using AI is sinful

Surely my corporate overlords will respect me if I couch my objection in paleoconservative language.

Oh, what's that? I'm still being shoved into the trash compactor and squeezed for all my surplus labor value, even though I've dangled this nifty religious icon in their face? Oh well... I guess my office is just Woke.

If I was hiring for my hypothetical construction company I'd have a real easy time picking between an employee who gets the job done and one who refuses to use power tools.

[–] nerv@fedinsfw.app 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That is a very poor equivalence.

Powertools and machinery still require knowledge on how to do the work properly, account for future maintenance, test for leaks, etc.

Which is not what everyone is trying to do with "AI". The "tool" is supposed to replace all necessity of trained and knowleadgeable workers and at some point the workers themselves.

[–] PetteriPano@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

I think it's spot on. Even if you use power tools you need to know what kind of screw goes where. But it sure goes a whole lot faster to use power tools.

Sounds to me from the article that this is a seasoned engineer who just doesn't want to use the tools she's being handed.

If a drill started to make things that looked like holes but weren't, I'd go back to hand tools.
