Comment on Bill Gates: People saying AI will create more jobs don’t understand what’s coming
flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 hours agoI’m in college and for one of my classes we actually have a prompt we feed to ChatGPT so that ChatGPT creates an excel spreadsheet for us as a step in an assignment process. The whole spreadsheet.
The class is for healthcare and I won’t get more specific, but yes, you can use AI today to make whole ass Excel spreadsheets.
(One of the steps in that particular assignment involves fact-checking the spreadsheet, btw, but about 95% of the time all the answers are word-for-word in the book, 4% they’re taken from the web and have more up-to-date info than the book has, and 1% is blatant lies.)

Yeah, so far when someone shows me a concrete example of this amazingly complicated thing that GenAI helped then realize, I think “really… that’s it?”
It’s a decent reminder that a lot of people have more modest needs and a lot of the enthusiasm can come from that, and maybe that’s more understandable.

It’s a decent reminder that the kids are not alright.
