Try prompting Claude to fix an arbitrary code base better than someone who knows it, when you're a random non-technical person. Try prompting Claude for legal advice and getting as good of results as Lawyer would if you're a layperson. Try prompting Claude for medical advice if you're not a doctor... I would hope these people are AT A MINIMUM screening the responses they get before passing them off. There's value in that if they are, as if they really are experts they can filter out bs and reprompt better than you likely could if you're not an expert - and in rare cases, who knows, maybe they could actually do it themselves. AI is just going to speed run bringing out the best and worst in coworkers. There have always been people that did the absolute bare minimum to not get fired. AI will just make it more obvious. And those people will be at the front to be let go when AI inevitably kills white collar jobs as it creates other jobs. They just might not be able to get one of those new ones because they rotted what little brain cells they had to begin with. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> I would hope these people are AT A MINIMUM screening the responses they get before passing them off The co-founder of Anthropic isn't even doing this when preparing statements to say after the Pope has spoken about AI, I think you're expecting a bit too much here. Don't get me wrong, I definitely think that's a must too, but I also think people should test software extensively before deploying/releasing it, seemingly nowadays I'm in the minority about these sort of things. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I find your comment a bit funny > Try prompting Claude to fix an arbitrary code base better than someone who knows it, when you're a random non-technical person. I've seen people employed working on some code bases that couldn't code at all. > Try prompting Claude for legal advice and getting as good of results as Lawyer would if you're a layperson. Some lawyers are downright incompetent and don't know what they're talking about / just want your money. > Try prompting Claude for medical advice if you're not a doctor... Some doctors are downright incompetent or malicious. You'd generally find that out by vising another doctor and finding previous diagnostic was bullshit and you lost time. > AI is just going to speed run bringing out the best and worst in coworkers. It does help people overall, the worst coworkers are probably going to still be there, just a bit better hidden. The rest just have a new-age search engine to augment their capabilities. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
