The author took a tangent so fast and so long into some theater that they didn&#x27;t ever explain what his problem with AI is. I would love to hear more about it and specifically how Google changed in the last 3 years. I&#x27;d like to know what the outlook was 3 years ago and how it drifted.

Given the mundane title, I wasn&#x27;t expecting that to go where it did.

I took a 50% paycut to quit working in advertising because I think it is a profoundly evil and useless industry. I have never regretted it, and you wouldn&#x27;t have, either.

I think experiences like this provide a framework for us to confront and then move on from problems we are avoiding. the same goes for tarot or self help books or religions or even any abstract processes.<p>we inscribe ourselves into the narrative and populate it (subconsciously?) with our biggest issues. The narrative plays out and provides us with solutions to our conundrum. I believe this is how religions, cults, management paradigms (and even computer science design patterns) and are born.<p>All of it is just a trick we play on ourselves to get out of analysis paralysis.

Why does it seem so uncommon to not look for personal fulfillment through one&#x27;s employment?<p>What I work on is so boring, but I&#x27;m grateful for a paycheck of which I&#x27;m objectively well-paid. I put in an honest 8 hours of work per day, I get free food and workout one hour every day. Overall I&#x27;m pretty happy, even though my work is neither fulfilling or will make me rich. I have no desire to think I&#x27;m above getting a paycheck, I tried earning money on my own and it was so hard, I appreciate my paymasters very much.

Since she said she was in charge of Google Cloud&#x27;s docs:<p>This was my recent experience when trying to use Google GCP to deploy a simple node docker application:<p>1. Google search, wade though SEO spam, 3 links on companies trying to sell me deployment products built on top of GCP, 2 paywalled Medium articles, and 3 out of date blog posts. Nothing I tried worked. -3 hours<p>2. Go to the GCP Developer documentation and feel like I&#x27;m opening up a course. Spent 2 hours looking around and reading, can&#x27;t find the right commands, and the tutorial I found is out of date and doesn&#x27;t work. -2 hours<p>3. Come back from lunch and decide to ask Google Gemini, who promptly replies with what looks like the answer but is really just made up. I correct it, and it even admits it made up an API and command line switch, only to give me more fake info. -30 min<p>4. Head to ChatGPT, which couldn&#x27;t give me the right info (out of date from last year and obviously scraped from prior blog posts I read). -20 min

A management training course I took 20 years ago said when your personal values were out of step with the company then you had to leave for your own mental health. I&#x27;ve thought about that a lot since.

My key takeaway here is: Good for you to have so much money to just pull off decisions like that.

I wish people would just get to the point when they write.<p>People clicked because they want to know why you left.<p>Three paragraphs in... I have no idea.<p><i>sigh</i>

Julia Masli&#x27;s show is incredible. Definitely worth seeing.

I mean good for the author if they find peace through this.<p>In practice, it looks like they went to a meditation &#x2F; mindfulness kind of event, felt like their AI work is evil, were very impacted, and left.<p>It comes across as a bit of drama. The view that AI is evil is <i>very</i> common, and it&#x27;s not like Google&#x27;s AI efforts are particularly more leaning towards evil than any other AI effort.<p>I suspect the same would have been said about &quot;tech&quot; in general a couple of years ago and the same article could have been written.

What a wonderful story about values and self-reflection.

AI is not evil.<p>AI just is.<p>We all need to adapt to its good and bad and middling impacts.
