IBM to Pause Hiring for Jobs That AI Could Do
Roughly 7,800 IBM jobs could be replaced by AI, automation.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-01/ibm-to-pause-hiring-for-back-office-jobs-that-ai-could-kill?sref=SgYAAa0L

International Business Machines Corp. Chief Executive Officer Arvind Krishna said the company expects to pause hiring for roles it thinks could be replaced with artificial intelligence in the coming years.

Hiring in back-office functions — such as human resources — will be suspended or slowed, Krishna said in an interview. These non-customer-facing roles amount to roughly 26,000 workers, Krishna said. “I could easily see 30% of that getting replaced by AI and automation over a five-year period.”

That would mean roughly 7,800 jobs lost. Part of any reduction would include not replacing roles vacated by attrition, an IBM spokesperson said.

As artificial intelligence tools have captured the public imagination for their ability to automate customer service, write text and generate code, many observers have worried about their potential to disrupt the labor market. Krishna’s plan marks one of the largest workforce strategies announced in response to the rapidly advancing technology.

Lol, this is gonna rule. AI is gonna screw so much up that the litigation is going to keep human lawyers in work for years.

Ex. A: The woman who had a LLM "translate" her asylum application and the program changed her singular pronouns (I) to plural (we), which triggered an "inconsistency" in her story and resulted in her asylum claim being denied. Looking forward to an HR department run by a LLM just absolutely copulating with the canine and leading to comical amounts of litigation.

People joke about ChatGPT (etc) and the errors.   Every ~60 days a new version will come out, and it'll get 10% better, fewer screw-ups.

But hey, humanity will have a good 12-18 month run before AI gets really good at replacing us, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

You might be right but I’m getting strong “self driving cars are just on the horizon” vibes from the “AI” revolution.

Self driving cars in the upper midwest in the winter are several generations away.    If the road is covered with snow, the car can't 'see' where it is.

If only we could get AI to correct grammatical errors.

[PointWarrior]

If only we could get AI to correct grammatical errors.

Maybe we can use AI to create the self-driving car that was supposed to be everywhere by now...

[Uncle Rico]

Maybe we can use AI to create the self-driving car that was supposed to be everywhere by now...

We were supposed to have those by now?  Really?  Huh

[PointWarrior]

When are one you going to create KenPomGTP so we can ask it any basketball analytics questions we want answered?

[PointWarrior]

Well yep, there's a page that track's these things, most predicted 2019 - 2022 range...

The predictions that they would be in use. They are, including autonomous semis.

The predictions weren't that all vehicles would be autonomous.

AI will design something to fix that problem.

[tower912]

Yeah, global warming.

[Hards Alumni]

Yeah, global warming.

It'll design something to fix that problem...

Hards wanted to hear from Wozinak ... here you go. He spoke yesterday.


Geoffrey Hinton, who just left Google (post above) and gave a warning about AI.  Hinton wished it was never created.

Woz essentially gave the same warning but suggested the damage created by bad actors would be less than the good created by good actors.

I started playing around with it last night. I'm doing a presentation in a few weeks on a certain topic. I asked it to tell me about that topic. It generally hit all the bullet points that I was planning on covering.

And, just for fun:

write a limerick about marquette basketball

There once was a team from Marquette,
Whose skills on the court were first-rate,
With a jump shot so fine,
And a strong front line,
Their opponents could only contemplate.

now do a haiku

Marquette's team in gold,
Basketball magic unfolds,
Victory is bold.


And, of course, the pièce de résistance:

write an 80's style sitcom theme about marquette basketball and arby's

(Upbeat synthesizer music starts playing)

Verse 1:
It's game day at Marquette,
The fans are hyped and can't wait,
To see their team take the court,
And make the other team come up short.

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's,
A match made in heaven, if you please,
A winning team and a Beef and Cheddar,
Together they make our hearts beat better.

Verse 2:
The players run out, the crowd goes wild,
The energy is contagious, like a child,
And on the sidelines, what do we see?
Arby's Beef and Cheddars, for you and me.

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's,
A match made in heaven, if you please,
A winning team and a Beef and Cheddar,
Together they make our hearts beat better.

Verse 3:
The game is close, the tension high,
But with Marquette on our side, we can't die,
And during the timeouts, what do we do?
We chow down on Arby's, a snack or two.

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's,
A match made in heaven, if you please,
A winning team and a Beef and Cheddar,
Together they make our hearts beat better.

(Outro music plays)

Fade out.




That sealed it for me. I, for one, welcome our artificially intelligent overlords.

write a 90's grunge style song about marquette basketball and arby's

Verse 1:
I'm heading to the game, gotta see Marquette play
Gonna cheer so loud, they'll hear us all the way
Arby's on the way there, gotta fuel up for the night
Get some curly fries and a drink, gonna make it all right

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's, the perfect pair
Grunge rockin' in the arena, we don't care
I'll get a roast beef sandwich, and some jalapeno bites
Marquette basketball and Arby's, it's just right

Verse 2:
The crowd is going wild, the team is on fire
Dribble, pass, and shoot, it's all we desire
Arby's in our hands, the perfect game-day snack
We'll root for Marquette, and never look back

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's, the perfect pair
Grunge rockin' in the arena, we don't care
I'll get a roast beef sandwich, and some jalapeno bites
Marquette basketball and Arby's, it's just right

Bridge:
The sweat on our faces, the beat in our hearts
Marquette and Arby's, the ultimate start
We'll keep on cheering, we'll keep on eating
Our love for both, never retreating

Chorus:
Marquette basketball and Arby's, the perfect pair
Grunge rockin' in the arena, we don't care
I'll get a roast beef sandwich, and some jalapeno bites

Outro:
Marquette basketball and Arby's, a combo so fine
Grunge rockin' all night, we'll have a great time
We'll keep on rooting, we'll keep on eating
Marquette and Arby's, forever defeating.

Ask it to write a 80's tune about the death of the mid-range jumper?    No way it even comes close to Brew's masterpiece...   i would do it myself but tied up an industry analytics conference
