> Tick off the "I did an AI" by using it to write your evaluations

>> Everyone's evaluations are written by AI

>>> AI picks whoever gets laid-off that quarter

And repeat!

Just in case anyone thought I was going to launch this with "poop" in the header, yes this is a WIP

Ah yes, "growth at all costs" ruins everything

Of course I am biased and this relates to the hot take I mentioned the other day which in some ways can be simplified as "there is no such thing as design leadership anymore"

Brought to you by the person who has been saying "there are no design-driven companies" for years now

Literally all I have ever wanted in Figma*

Even if you remain employed you get to be evaluated on the basis of how you use AI tools or how well you survived the latest batch of workplace dysfunction

Everything is stupid

The content is still obviously delusional to anyone reading it. It’s just organised crazy. But the real danger is the internal effect on the user. The AI provides coherence and validation, stabilising the narrative they’re caught in.

LLMs give people with delusional belief systems a way to organise those beliefs. The model fills in gaps, supplies connective tissue, and wraps the madness in formal language.
It doesn't make the claims more credible to us, it just tidies them up.

I'm still waiting for apps to function normally.. looking at you, HBO Max or whatever you're called now

Going to screenshot this post and use it as my intro instead

Sometimes it's nice to be validated that something that seemed fucked up was objectively fucked up

A good use of social media imo

You sir are a wizard

Idek, man 🤷🏻‍♀️

Definitely one of those "WTF is wrong with these people" moments of which I've had many

Tip for anyone who has to lay off people in the future: maybe don't use the phrase "we look forward to your next chapter" when the next chapter is unemployment during one of the worst job markets in recent years, healthcare being gutted, and basically everything getting worse
