Kaj ne sme manjkati na nakupovalnem seznamu za knjižni sejem? Bohve, kdaj bodo zraven knjig prilagali tudi darilne bone z bralnim časom namesto evrov (60 min branja, 120 min branja ...)

@instantclassicspod.bsky.social I would love to hear an episode on the Oracle of Thebes. Seems like AI is becoming its modern counterpart.

Articles about human-AI interaction gone wrong remind me of Solaris. Chatbots seem great at "materializing physical simulacra".

Companies Are Being Torn Apart by AI "Workslop," Stanford Research Finds Not only is AI hampering productivity, but it's also blowing up collaboration and souring employee dynamics.

“Employees are using AI tools to create low-effort, passable looking work that ends up creating more work for their coworkers” (via @futurism.com)
