Audiences attending the SXSW premiere of “The Fall Guy,” starring Ryan Gosling, were not happy about having to watch a sizzle reel before the movie that touted the promises of AI.
AI has all the popularity of the spoiled vaping neighbor kid and his new drone.
Businesses love it because it will vaporize the workforce. Consumers hate it because they know they’re going to get a severely degraded experience in return.
and tech workers have mixed feelings about it, because it’s made their job 10x easier whilst making them 10x more expendable
What? No it hasn’t.
Which part of my statement are you objecting to. I can definitely say the first part is true (N=20), and say the second part is somewhat true and growing (N=5), from my own personal observations of friends, family, and colleagues.
All you get is a base to work with, i have never had a working solution out of there. They tend to create commands and parameters which aren’t existing just because it would be logical, it works like a naive brain.
It is a glorified Google search and won’t replace any tech workers for quite some time, or never. I would compare it with a calculator for techies, if you have no idea what you’re doing you won’t get anything out of it.
Sometimes a base is all you need though. I have colleagues whose job it is to write trainings based on tool workflows, and this is something that AI can do right now, flawlessly
True, but the point ist that it’s worthless without a person
found the AI
guess I found the new “ok, boomer” blanket dismissal phrase… this will be a fun decade
Fuck Off Shillbot 9000
There are impressionable youths for you to lie to elsewhere

AI is a tool that makes us X% more productive (X is still debatable and bound to change)
But instead of making our job X% easier or let us earn X% more, work X% less, corporations are hellbent to fire X% of the workforce because that makes the most money.
Do you guys not have prompts?!
Do you not have nets, exile?!
The fuck is a “sizzle reel”. I mean, I get what it probably is from context, but who comes up with this shit
I am generally confused as to how you’ve never heard the term before and are just assuming it’s a new phrase.
When and in which context would I have heard this?
When
Any time a product is being shown off.
Context
Fucking anything. Apple showing off its new iPhone features, a studio showing clips from its upcoming shows, and an actor showcasing their previous work.
Da fug is a sizzle reel. Sounds like a term 1st graders came up with…
A short video normally no longer than 3 minutes designed to show off a product, usually in the form of a montage.
It’s an old term so I can’t imagine how you could live your life and not hear the term.
There’s no need to be a dick about it, just because you know a something doesn’t mean everyone else must also know it. I can guarantee there’s common terms you aren’t familiar with. Especially when you consider that this is marketing jargon with common alternate terms (eg demo reel).
If people are going to be dicks about not knowing the term I’m going to be a dick about knowing the term.
