the more you are aware of what AI can do and its limitations, not only in real-time but also in its development models, the more you are inclined to believe it is a bubble and not a revolution

its work must always be double-checked and that limits its effectiveness

I want to call in sick today b/c I am exhausted, but a) I am the only QA guy atm for something like 40 titles so I feel a responsibility to, you know, do my job, and b) I hesitate to say "I need a day off due to opiate withdrawal" b/c that just feels too american

I'm sure this has something to do with bonding or coolness or signaling your group or whatever and I suppose it is fair to say these are all things I do not perceive as my strengths

middle management is toxic by existing, a class of humans dedicated to aggressively doing nothing and ensuring workers do tasks that might not at all be related to the tasks they were hired for. sorry, middle managers. there's a reason ppl working your job rate them high on the "bullshit jobs" index
