LinkedIn is sadly a really good sense check for where businesses are going.
One thing I’ve noticed lately - people come up with the stupidest ideas possible, and then post long things about how it’s a great idea. They use generative AI to make the posts - generative AI will write posts and documents supporting whatever dumb shit you want.
My feeling - this will transfer inside businesses. People will present long Word documents and PowerPoints proposing absolutely dumb shit, and because everybody in biz is so numb to the process, they’ll nod along to the green tick lists and 57 page Word documents and sign things off which shouldn’t be.
Automating people being able to express dumb ideas at scale with long documents full of errors and made up data will have consequences, basically - as people don’t have the bandwidth to refute infinite bullshit.
IMHO businesses should have a global policy for every employee saying all generative AI content in documents - Word, PowerPoint slides etc - must be clearly labelled as such.
That way when you’re reviewing documents to make decisions, you have an idea around the source.
@GossiTheDog Once a human prompts Copilot to create a doc and then saves it to M365, that now becomes a human authored source. Next time that hallucinated BS will be attributed to a coworker, making it even harder for anyone to spot the error.
I've asked if there is anything built into #Microsoft365 #Copilot to stop this feedback loop of AI hallucinations. No, there isn't.
