    This whole AI thing is like being in a restaurant with a fancy waiter who has one of those giant pepper shakers, only it's full of bird poop and anthrax and he keeps asking "would miss like a little AI on her pasta?" with every dish that comes out... and when you say "NO" he starts grinding anyway and won't stop until you physically knock him over.

      @futurebird I’m so tired of watching everyone drink the Kool-Aid after watching the Kool-Aid melt everything it touches while the internet writhes around screaming in pain. Do MBAs require eating tainted bear meat or something? It’s 1637 and our entire economy is tulips

        @futurebird My employer is dealing with this now.

        A bit over two years ago: my data engineering team determines that a rather niche 3rd party database product, already in use by another team, is a logical choice for my team as well, since the two teams will likely need to share data in a way that the database is a good fit for.

        About 1 year ago: get email that the 3rd party database company is bought by an "AI"-focused company.

        About 1 year ago minus 10 seconds: *groans internally*, knowing what will probably happen soon.

        About 2 months ago: new company stuffs "AI" features into the database service and doubles the price for the "AI"-enabled service. There is no "old service, hold the AI, please" option. Since my company is gigantic, it is able to negotiate a one-time 12-month extension of the current DB service, but it's not going to be able to do that indefinitely.

        4 hours ago: Discover all of this in a meeting, and get annoyed at having to contemplate completely throwing out a bit over 2 years of work to get something similar to what we were using just fine back then.

            "MORE? Of course! We aim to serve."

            **cranks the grinder faster**
