Accenture now requires employees to log in and use AI tools if they want to get promoted or increase in comp.
The "Jobless Boom" Is Here

I use all of these tools except garbage like Copilot. Of course banks have to get off of old shit, everyone does. Actually deal with the legal/compliance/cost of everthing that comes with these tools and then maybe there's an honest debate that can be had that doesn't include a bleached anus squirting eggs.
I would shoot my self before I ever worked for them.
Oh, fuck yes. Fuck the Big 4 with a rusty aids infested cheese grater that even @HarveyRoad wouldn't use.
Fuck most CPA firms.
And Toronto law firms. They suck the most tit.
Throbber's issue with AI is not whether it is coming - it is. It's who is going to control it. Elon is all over that debate.
Reid Hastings is deep into Claude and Anthropic and he's pure evil on a Bill Gates level.
Fuck the BCG and McKinsey types too.
You're the one getting all worked up about how stupid AI is, yada yada yada.
The AI will deal with the legal and compliance stuff for you. I just ran my company policies through AI the other day to compare versus what I got from an attorney and the AI did a better job with the $20 monthly subscription versus what the attorney charged me $450/hr to do.
You think I view cutting attorney fees as a NEGATIVE, let alone think I'm "worked up" or "talking shit" about AI?
You have zero clue what I even do. I have a pretty good idea of how expendable you are though.
Classic Haie shit talking other people's jobs to try and figure out what it is that other people here do for a living to feel better about himself. I'm at the top of my org, literally, and am not losing any sleep about the AI stuff. Keep up the schtick, fren'.
One of us doesn't give a shit who ends up picking up garbage, for obviously reasons, and the other is, based off of zero understanding of the topic at hand, rooting for it.
I didn't know you were this butthurt/retarded.
Your wish is Claude’s command.
Good news, Anthropic's Claude AI is embedded in the US War Department.

This story doesn't quite feature the gut-punch immediacy of Mexico's drug war escalating into a virtual civil war last week in and around Puerto Vallarta, but as a glimpse into the future, maybe it ought to send a chill or three down your spine.
According to a new Bloomberg story (paywalled, sorry), a weeks-long hacker campaign against the Mexican government culminated in January with a massive data theft of some of the federal government's most sensitive information.
"By the time it was over," Let's Data Science reported on Wednesday, "the attacker had stolen 150 gigabytes of sensitive data — including 195 million taxpayer records, voter registration files, government employee credentials, and civil registry data."
If you're thinking such a massive theft involved a team of hackers, years of planning involving a Stuxnet-like virus, or even physical access to Mexican government computer systems — think again.
The almost unprecedented hack was done by just one guy. Using Anthropic's Claude AI, despite all of Anthropic's safeguards against something exactly like this.
Summing up a report published Wednesday by Israeli cybersecurity startup Gambit Security, Bloomberg wrote that some "unknown Claude user" simply made up "Spanish-language prompts for the chatbot to act as an elite hacker, finding vulnerabilities in government networks, writing computer scripts to exploit them and determining ways to automate data theft."
It seems like just two days ago [It was just two days ago, Steve —Editor] I wrote about Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei getting called onto the carpet by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth because the company refused to let the Pentagon remove Claude's guardrails for military use.
“Anthropic knows this is not a get-to-know-you meeting,” an anonymous War Department official told Axios on Monday. “This is not a friendly meeting," they said. "This is a s**t-or-get-off-the-pot meeting.”
So how did some internet rando get Claude to ignore similar built-in safeties against hacking?

So Hackers Just Stole Mexico's Tax and Voter Rolls and You'll Never Guess How

As mentioned before, Throbber isn't so concerned as to the pace at which AI is utilized because that's coming whether we like it or not.
The question is who controls it. Elon or Reid Hoffman.
I know who I'd prefer to have in charge.

Sad to see how far Anthony Davis has fallen.

Nothings changed with Haie. Still the Franny of the board.
Another slinking, low T chud that can't wait to chime in about shit that looks like magic to they/them.
You guys have it all wrong. I'm jealous of YOUR careers: be so mediocre that nobody would even *care enough* to eliminate your shit. As opposed to continuing to make even more money off of the potential for more products.

Such a little, autistic man. I don't recall ever insinuating you are jealous of anyone's career, but I do think you like to get into what other people do to feel better about yourself. Kinda weird, but whatever floats your boat. Make money while you still can. We're rootin' for ya!
Define “you guys”
You Olds are going to be very disappointed. And I'm not even a developer, nor a manager. It's my decision to reduce head count or not and I know where I stand when the best tool on the market can't even read 1 of our repos after 2 hours and who knows how many tokens burned through.
You don't know what I'm talking about though, because you have nothing to do with this topic, which is why you shouldn't be interrupting a thread just to let everybody know what a fucking loser you are.
