… welcome to parenthood, where you have to watch what your kids do… you’re the parent… I don’t even have the words…

Are you trying to make titen a trend?

Ooo I know this one! I won’t give out any spoilers.

They’re already spewing ads. People are used to it and don’t mind. Also some don’t particularly care about accuracy.

Jokes on you. I never persisted at doing hard things because I had no idea what I was doing. Now I get into all sorts of shenanigans because I do what ai tells me to do.

It’s the same reaction to AI.

I keep my camera closed. But I image the light would go on if I was being watched?

How they got that observation makes sense. There must be some assumptions about that then - like that perhaps I’m more tech savvy than most people (apparently 20% of people can do that), or perhaps I make more money than average and my prices should be higher. That’s probably it.

Some of the records they have are silly. Ie: likely owns x router (well duh I just purchased it). But some are odd - “can touch type without looking at keyboard”. How did they figure that out?

Fun! Sounds like we’re already screwed.

“Faith” can be any kind of belief system. I know an older man who thought they could make money off the stock market by watching stock prices and by listening to analysts. They’re naive about how things function.

Connected to that is an inability to learn/how to teach themselves by using critical thinking and so heavily rely on other people to spoon feed them information.

Lastly, it’s an identity threat for them when reality doesn’t match their beliefs. So they dig their heels deeper.

Ooo we haven’t had a pandemic in 6.5 years.

Oh man. I’ve never considered myself a power user. Mice are uncomfortable for me, trackpads are much better but I learned excel before I got a laptop.

That makes me feel better… I disliked office 365. How does it compare with keyboard shortcuts? I barely use the mouse these days.

As a side note, damn we are an old bunch here.

This is a good reminder to finally dl it and bite the learning curve.

That’s the right strategy. They want to use ai, so let them. No need to speak to professionals who will use ai anyway.
