A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yep, as wildly expensive and unreliable as AI is, so are staff.

Watch as loads of people get laid off, they realise the AI can't do their jobs after all, but you know who can give it a go? Some guy in a third world country on $3 an hour.
