9. They create culture wars and push legislation that dehumanizes people with the least power in our society as a way to distract you from the shady crap they’re up to.

15. This is an area where we need to catastrophize and reward those lines of thought. The harm is real and it will be exponentially increased if we aren’t intentional about how we use these tools. @cherthedev/1636753750735073280

17. I love the reframing of AI as "backward-looking" as opposed to "forward-looking" because it’s trained on data from the past to recognize and figure out patterns. #StochasticParrotsDay

36. I love that @karlitaliliana calls out managers who “don’t have the range” to manage a diverse workforce. This is a huge issue. For all the talk about “the pipeline,” the real issue is churn when team culture doesn’t respect & value diversity. That starts with managers.
