    Wait, copilot and ChatGPT use are skills? Isn’t that a bit like how using a phone is a skill?

      More like googling skills. Definitely got some of my first jobs by telling my interviewer that I google shit I don’t know

        You might be surprised at how many people don’t really know how to use Google/a search engine effectively.

        Things like “what should I search for to find X” is a sentence I hear from both friends and colleagues quite often.

      being a prompt engineer is so much more than typing words. you also have to sometimes delete the words and then type new ones

        There’s also jailbreaking the AI. If you happen to work for a trollfarm, you have to be up to date with the newest words to bypass its community guidelines to make it “disprove” anyone left of Mussolini.

        Don’t forget that its much more effort than teaching a child, sometimes no matter your words, the machine can be stubborn. It is a very difficult and misunderstood profession, sometimes my head aches a little from typing the same thing over again, expecting a different result. But together we will hallucinate the future, engineering one word at a time.

    So not only do they want AI to take your job - you also won’t be able to get another job if you don’t wholesale buy into this shit.

    I love the future.

      Don’t worry, every company was hiring anyone with DevOps on their resume just a couple years back. Now its AI. I’ve been on this train for far too long, and saw places that said they sold “X” and had no one on the team that even knew it. My last place asked me to demo a devops pipeline that was “zero touch” for developers (for a client) and were in shock with my demo “why don’t we sell this?!”… I’ve been here for 2 years, delivering this easy, low hanging fruit and you want to sell the concept as a service? Sigh….

      I’ve added AI to my pipeline, for “code improvement analysis and quantitative risk”, it’s just as amazing as before. It’s just a shiny feature in the grand scheme of what AI could really do in real fields (medical, financials, etc), but it looks good on my resume and i’m getting hits on my linkedin, daily.

      Lets just hope this time around, companies do some due diligence on hiring and we’re not where we are now, whenever the AI bubble pops. Hahahahahaha

    Make sure to check LinkedIn daily using Ctrl+shift+alt+win+L for better job opportunities! Keep using chatGPT and you may just win an unpaid internship at microsoft!

        it’s for the official Office keyboard.
        it comes wirh shortcuts to ms office stuff and was supposed to work without installing any software, so they bound them to an extremely long key combinations no one will trigger by accident and shipped the changes to all windows users.

        also another fun fact: Ctrl + Alt + Shift + Win corresponds to the “Office” key, and hitting that combination will make Windows silently and automatically download and install the Microsoft/Office 365 App and launch it, even if it was previously removed

    Cannot wait for this AI trash to become illegal and all these damn companies stealing tons of information against all known copyright laws to feed their half-assed AI garbage that outputs laughable results at best are forced to suddenly backtrack on their “LOL AI IS THE FUUUUUUTUUUUUREEEEE” bullshit.

    The company I work for blocked ChatGPT and Co-pilot company wide, because they found underwriters using ChatGPT for subscription analysis.
