Love making stuff with wood, metal, and electronics! Communist since my early teens, still a commie in my 40s.
A better world is possible. We need to fight to build it.

And the battle's going again,
And the heart's uneasy in the chest.
And Lenin is young once again,
And the young October is ahead.

A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Multiple surveys are telling the same story: AI adoption has stalled. Census data shows ~11% of workers use AI, with rates falling at 250+ employee firms. Surveys show usage spiked then plateaued.
Meanwhile Big Tech is planning $5T in AI spend by 2030 that needs $650B/year in revenue vs ~$50B today

Musk is too inarticulate and too slow to come up with anything witty so he's got an app to do it for him. I can't think of anything more sad than asking your phone to knock out a yo mamma joke aimed at a random stranger at a party because you're incapable. Who invites this dweeb to parties anyway?

icymi, Musk's Ai, Grok, appears to have been instructed to always say Musk is the best at everything. And, when you do that, it turns out there's a loophole!
