So healthcare workers are using chatgpt to write messages for patients and to summarize appointment notes?

Given what I see at my workplace I can completely believe this.

Lets be real. The only connection an EHR has to patient health is whatever minimum standard the hospital needs to avoid malpractice lawsuits. The rest of the EHR is all about billing insurance companies and Medicare.

Nobody cares about emoji except the poor folks who have to login to it everyday, and it makes their lives a smidgen better. Lets chill on the criticism of emojis.

God bless America and God bless President Trump!

This can only be good news for the Venezuelans, having lived in such poor conditions for so long. Soon they will be able to go to McDonald's, drink Starbucks, and maybe one day if they really prove themselves to have that special drive and spirit that only Americans have, apply for US citizenship!

But you'd essentially be making things to kill people. And those people are often innocent civilians.

"I really don't care about the product I work on. "

Literally the first sub-qualification

I feel exactly the same as you my friend.

Great news. Hopefully more people will come to their senses and stop buying teslas.

Yes but London isn't in America so there's that.

Have you lived in the UK at all, or at least spent considerable time there?

I've lived in the UK and America, and America seems far more broken to me.

I’ve lived in an actual “broken” country. Compared to that both the US and UK are great.

I don't think Four-Yorkshiremen-style one-upmanship[1] this discussion adds anything meaningful to the conversation around comparing US/China/Europe

I'm not sure if I am just losing my mind at this point, but all this slop everywhere is starting to be funny.

I honest to god am in teams chats at work with high up the food chain architects and leaders (and plain old devs) and people are pasting chatgpt responses either as evidence backing up their claims of how something should be done, or as an actual response to another person as if they typed it themselves.

I have people sending me documents they "put together" that are clearly chatgpt generated, tables and emojis included.

Is this progress?

Same here. I'm torn between "feels bad being the only sane person in an otherwise insane environment" and "I have enough self-awareness to realize I cannot be the only sane person here".

Do we work at the same company?

I'll take the hit to my 401k for this to all just go away. The comments here sound ridiculous.

Can you give an example of some ridiculous comments

What do you mean?

Indeed, likely a useful lens on the current moment I’d say.

For better/worse, and whether completely so or not, the time of the professional keyboard-driven mechanical logic problem solver may simply have just come and gone in ~4 generations (70 years?).

By 2050 it may be more or less as niche as it was in 1950??

Personally, I find the relative lack of awareness and attention on the human aspect of it all a bit disappointing. Being caught in the tides of history is a thing, and can be a tough experience, worthy of discourse. And causing and even forcing these tides isn’t necessarily a desirable thing, maybe?

Beyond that, mapping out the different spaces that are brought to light with such movements (eg, the various sets of values that may drive one and the various ways that may be applied to different realities) would also certainly be valuable.

But alas, “productivity” rules I guess.

Building little toy projects like some of these is one of my favorite ways to learn and play. Sometimes the value isn't in the initial finished product but in the concepts it exposed and knowledge or inspiration gained from that.

I guess if what you really want is only the finished product and nothing else, churning it out as quickly as possible with AI and not caring about the implementation could work for you. But it would take the fun out of it for me.

Sadly my career may eventually head in that direction. At least I'll always have a hobby to enjoy.

Same here! That's why I'm having so much fun building nearly 100 of them in a year.

The difference here is that I didn't have to type out all of the code by hand.
