I have also been in such a situation. Have been searching for a house for slightly more than a year but the plan is shelved for now.

Neither you nor me need an endorsement from each other.
And when you don't know me, like you said, just lay that privilege sensor to rest. When you know me, you can revisit that sensor.

The book is on my reading list even if it has nothing to do with the allegations of bribery and cheating.

Yeah ... Yeah. You don't know me and I am a neutral party but you know or assume that your correlation is the perfect compass to navigate the world around you and that indicated I am a privileged person. Lol. Nice.

Now I am a casteist. Lol. Go on. Hold on your weakly held beliefs. They are your strengths.

And why ignore clarification? Especially when alleging misinformation?

But my reply wasn't to that. The reply has a context too. As simple as that.

Your post is about corrupt embassy officials and their unkept promises. And my question was on that. It doesn't mean there isn't a lack of empathy. As for your correlation observation, perhaps there is a need for recalibration. But hey, we are who we are.

Anyone who asks a question or has had a different opinion isn't privileged or lacks empathy. If anyone thinks that way, then it is their problem. Including you. The assumptions you hold about me and certainly of these assumptions are also interesting to observe.

German officials might be going to premier institutions and promoting Germany as a land of opportunities but that is normal.

What do you mean by German officials promoting and promising an utopia? I haven't seen any such thing. What I see is training agencies, run my indians, promising lucrative jobs and better quality of life.

I can't agree more with you on how untrained users or people with limited know-how would use these tools and produce subpar results. A fool with a tool is still a fool.

We are aware that AI tools won't get all thing right and at the first place. We ourselves don't. But our opinion tends to be that AI can make things more efficient and effective.

But in a well curated environment, and with human supervision, AI has the potential to bring more value. In fact, we have been using it for the past 3 years and we see significant progress. That's where my bet is.

There are consultants and AI evangelists who promise the holy grail of a technology that needs no human intervention. That's not something I believe in. So, Lynn is right replacing her isn't gonna happen, at least not in near to mid term.

Interesting. In scientific domains, the sources are getting or appear to be getting better. Perhaps this is because scientific journals have a generally acceptable and established quality tier. Thus controlling inputs is possible.

What AI needs is expert guidance. And we concluded that in due course it will match the best among us.

I now understand your statement better.
We had a similar discussion at our work. We concluded that with the current training protocols, the quality of answer we can expect would only be an weighted average of quality of the training documents.

I have no skin in this game, but isn't any technology iterative? Mistakes will be made but I think these systems would continue to evolve and get better and better.

Exactly. These people think of development in terms of monetary benefits and obviously the business case for destruction is more compelling than for caregiving. 😡

In recent days, I have seen many robotics demonstrations where the machines are trained to be aggressive. Why aren't people training these robots to care?

And typically the health insurance covered major illnesses and not the rest. These benefits also are eroding as companies are becoming more cost conscious.

When I started to work, I had 13 days annual leave. And 12 days sick leave. When my daughter was born, she had 4 weeks paid maternity leave. And when my son was born it was 8 weeks. Health insurance was provided by employers if you worked for MNCs otherwise you fork out.

My Chinese colleagues would setup meetings at 3 pm German time, 10 pm their time to discuss project matters. Just to make it convenient for me. I have done the same when I was located in my home country, Singapore. People really need to learn to look east.
