@GossiTheDog I think in InfoSec our job is to make others as productive as possible.

ChatGPT risks are like open WiFi or security headers missing. People who do this, don't have enough real work.

Job blocks ChatGPT?

Interesingly, ChatGPT only suggest cheating/circumventing the block. Never actually working yourself.

@GossiTheDog
I get the point in telling a worker who has been blocked from ChatGPT to just "
do their job," unassisted (I am nothing if not old school), but AI tools can greatly expand our knowledge and productivity. They key is asking it the right questions and knowing enough about the subject to catch mistakes. It's a partner, not a substitute.

Patty 6-7. I have no idea...

pattykimura@beige.party

@GossiTheDog The ability to think and write a coherent thought is a skill honed by the repeated practice of putting down your own thoughts and critically evaluating (self-editing) your words and ideas. If you say "Yeah, it may say that, but that's not what I meant" you have a performance skill deficit. By encouraging reliance on an intellectual crutch, we slowly breed out a societally critical skill that is necessary in a flourishing democracy.

@GossiTheDog The only thing I use AI for is to show off what utter horseshit it produces a significant % of the time.

And then use that output to question why C-level execs want to use Agentic AI to replace as many workers as possible.

Except themselves, of course. 🤬

@GossiTheDog that depends, have they blocked ChatGPT because they've realized that delivering actual high-quality products and UX will give them a serious business advantage in an industry full of shitty machine-generated text and code...

...or because upper management is making everyone use the in-house LLM instead?

@GossiTheDog I am still amused by the way that whe a former workplace of mine banned generative AI in the office, the next three weeks were an endless stream of:

* Yes, it's totally and absolutely banned.
* The decision came from our CEO
* The decision is final and I cannot forward on your appeal
* You were hired for your intellectual skills and can do your job without bot assistance.
* No, the CEO doesn't want to hear about how it affects your creativity. The decision remains final.
