Generally, companies that have AI integrated to this extent have no engineers remaining who could have made such things impossible.
It starts with automating backups that nobody verifies for years, then continues to off-shoring all development to the cheapest contractors that nobody actively manages, handing over all “keys to the kingdom” to cloud providers, culminating with elimination of 80% of infrastructure and engineering staff in a mad dash to cut costs at any cost. At that point giving AI agents full access is just icing on the cake.


Gen Z doesn’t need to sabotage AI. AI is already doing a fine job sabotaging itself.
Don’t give them any ideas!


“Hey everyone, I’m kicking off the array rebuild. See you all in a month.”
Give the AI restraints, like “Don’t tell me to kill myself as part of this stir-fry recipe.”
Ouch
One hundred billion dollars worth of GPUs (and all the RAM they can hoard) hard at work, ladies and gentlemen. Of course Slopya Nadella needs more data centers.


Remember, folks, HR is there too protect the company, not you.


Same. I had to disclose every single investment and bank account, payment apps, and loan for myself, my wife, and any dependents like children or aging parents. All to avoid even a possibility of something looking like a conflict of interest. In the meantime the fucking president of the country can hawk meme coins, and pardon actual convicted fraudsters. I asked about that on one of those zoom calls, but was ignored for some reason.


Work makes you use your own computer?


I’d avoid cracking software. Every crack you download carries a nom-zero risk of infecting your PC with malware. I get your reluctance to switching to a different editing software, but it may be worth it.
I must’ve tried every free and paid photo editor out there, and none have feature parity with Lightroom Classic or Capture One. The thing most of them are missing is AI based tools like object masking, etc. Luminar Neo comes close, but I feel it’s only a matter of time before they go sub-only too. There’s a new free one called RapidRAW that has pitential.


This is the way.
Same for airfare, car rentals, cruises, etc. Cut out the fucking middle man. The booking sites used to be a nice way for consolidating your travel plans. But as everything else, they’ve enshittified themselves to a point where using them has become a major gamble.
Use them to find a deal, then go directly to the source. You may pay slightly more, but the fewer agreements you have between you and the service provider, the less chance you have of getting fucked over.

I’m gonna object that! The little fuckers are too coddled these days.


It’s probably too late. Does anyone these days really believe that these companies actually delete anything?


After that - dubbing in realtime.


they don’t have the energy to be digital activists after they have finished a day of work.
Good news! With the rate corporations are laying off and firing workers, pretty soon they will have plenty of time for activism.

Pro-File Picture? I don’t know, people abbreviate things in stupid ways.
