We’ve created lossy expansion, the worst of both worlds!!
To reliably preserve the information for the decoding AI, the e-mail needs at least 2000 words, making it useless for human readers.
Sometimes I had to throw my programming assignments in to chatGPT just to understand wtf they want from me.
AI works as an additional layer in the network stack, which parses data (bullet points) and passes to the application layer.
Please make a Powerpoint presentation of this bullet point for project manager, so he can show it to product owner.
If only AI could be used to get rid of SAFe Agile, Jira and the middle managers who push its use.
When people are communicating between each other in professional setting, its almost always “required” to clearly present a proper respect to the other person.
For example, imagine yourself being in a meeting and realizing the air in the room is stale. You glance around the room and note who is the closest to the window. Now imagine yourself saying to them “Mike, open the window.” It’s short, it’s to the point, and… it’s disrespectful. What you will actually say is “Don’t you guys think we need some fresh air here? Mike, since you’re the closest to the window, would you mind opening it?”
The two sentences contain the same exact essence: you ask someone to open a window, yet one of those is significantly longer.
This is pretty much what is happening when two people communicate with each other in emails – you have an idea you want to communicate, and then you spend time to “pretty” it up. The person that receives the email, reads through it, is happy with the respect you have shown to them, and then spends time to extract the essence of your email.
Seeing this comic makes me wonder “funny, but hear me out…”
so nowadays email communication is just two AIs playing the broken telephone game
The other day I talked to an aquaintance and told her I use AI on occassion to rewrite press releases we get that were clearly intended to be used on social media, specifically a message she sent to us earlier that day. Turns out I used AI to rearrange a piece that was written by AI with next to no human input.
Your coworkers pretend to read their email?
I feel like mine all just have 10k unread emails whenever they share their screen…
This is a human problem. People think it’s polite to encase their point in a word salad, dancing around the subject. Just write what you want ffs.
I keep having to stress this to my execs, investing in these systems is an arms race to nowhere
I literally did both to write a report for a client lmao. I did some heavy editing but it’s just bullshit they probably won’t even read, so I thought why bother.
In the future a single email will consume 10 kWh of energy.
Yeap, the AI future is boring and pointless.
Can we have just AIs doing the meeting and slack channels and emails and the standup?
Encoder/Decoder Network
Except the bullet points will be opposite in meaning
lol
Result of all those grammarly ads
CEO in third panel: Why do I need a person to write or read these emails?
Cut the shit and get to the point. But most people get offended when being spoken to directly, so normally you have to sugar coat what you are saying.
AI makes life simpler
I hope A.I. wouldnt takeover our daily lifestyle
AI turns this long email someone pretended to write into a single bullet point.
