A bill under consideration in New York would provide a private right of action, allowing people to file lawsuits against chatbot owners who violate the law.
Please don’t take them entirely away. Maybe just internet access? 30ish years had to do accounting by hand. In those green ledgers. It took approximately twelve times longer to do it by hand than to do it with a computer. And it made me shrimp like 5 times worse. I needed an architect’s table what angled the top of it in order to work properly but I could neither get one supplied by the employer nor afford to give one to the employer.
um, i had one. still have it in a case in the garage, next to my 1950s adding machine that sat in the corner of my cube making me look like a Real Numbers Person Tee Emm.
if i’d known my hood was going to be brown i might have reconsidered.
I don’t get how some of these tech company CEOs who came up as engineers can be pushing this bullshit. I get once the company got big they started hiring business bros. But some big companies still have CEOs that were once engineers. You’d think they would know better.
What kind of engineer? Because while the physical world, with all of its mechanical and civil and aerospace engineers, has its shit figured out with professional standards and very clearly defined responsibilities and duties, the world of social engineers, tire engineers, procurement engineers, supply chain engineers, sandwich engineers, project engineers, lead engineers, and yes, software engineers, definitely is a little too loose with any definition for me to care that these ceos were once ‘engineers.’
I think a better solution is to ban techbros from giving serious economic or cultural advice and take computers away from business majors.

You can take any of these professional engineers, give them a billion dollars and they’re going to turn into total pieces of shit.
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
