Fired his lazy ass.

I suspect a program telling you you're so smart and agreeing with your every word is very important to those who don't have the self-awareness or self-confidence to deal objectively with a story that's just too good to be true.
The business world and C-suites are littered with people who bought into the Prosperity Gospel/"the Secret" pop theories where success is "visualized", and reality is there to be altered in real time to anything they want it to be.

We also, I believe, sense danger better. I think that comes from motherhood and survival. We’ve been navigating the danger zone forever. We may or may not be smarter. But, we think about the dangers of things ahead more than men. That’s just my opinion and I may get slammed for saying it. But, we have lots of practice. I’m suspicious of it all and worry that “we don’t know what we don’t know”. I think AI is a dangerous road unless thought through carefully. I’ve never used it. I know it can be useful. But, we need to be damn clear why we’re using it and what the implications are.

1. Men are known to be suspicious, looking all over, for example, exiting a building, an eye out for trouble. And this has been considered an annoyance, as if paranoid.

2. Women must feel constant threat from larger and stronger beings, too often with bad intentions. Perhaps as in #1, that's not verbalized.

As you noted, it has to be a factor, felt not just in advance, but constantly.

And more likely to think ahead and strategize/avoid.

No psych degree here, just a techie, so I defer to those with a better understanding of psychology.

Men can be statistically more reckless. Those Bored Panda pix at the link I posted register --- unfortunately.

And more impressed by novelty. I recall reading in National Lampoon (of course) that men like things that "Are big, go fast, and explode" It was supposed to be satire.

Just my two cents worth, and if bogus, correct me.

Although, I don’t know any men that fall under #1, unless they’ve been smoking weed.😂 But, I also don’t know any men that carry a gun. My guess is most of them fall under #1! I think men can be suspicious, but I feel it wouldn’t be about AI.

Some deer were passing through and a shout does nothing. They seem to respond only to motion in their direction.

I get photos of the wildflowers that they refuse to eat. Everything else is fair game, and roses are yummy candy to them, so I grow nothing (changing the subject). I do miss growing roses and it's time to move anyway.

Just making observations.

Having been into science and math forever, I am more into probabilities.

We as humans are really bad at estimating things. For example, a spectacular rarity like the 9/11 attack biases us toward overestimating the probability of this exceedingly rare event. And we wasted tons of resources and half our freedoms combating it. (some really gained advantage thereby)

Here is a list of cognitive biases.

I look at that and wonder how we get anything done right at all.

Part of my career was creating "error budgets" for optical systems, so every little source of error has to be taken into account and you (wisely) throw money at the biggest ones and those that give you the most improvement for your money, complexity and time. And some things are just warning bells, when they can't be reduced or eliminated, referring to AI failure modes that are pretty much baked in by their design.

People are using it outside its area of applicability, or safe operating area. Because it's new and shiny (a cognitive bias)

I lived in NJ with deer everywhere! Funny how they knew what they could not eat! It was a constant search to find desirable looking plants that they would not devour. But, they know! And, we learned. Never tried shouting at them! I loved seeing them as they are beautiful creatures. But hated when they ate my plants!

I just shout to see if they react (they don't) and there's nobody up here to talk to anyway.

My problem is when they are in the road. I believe that they react to danger by staying still and then moving in some RANDOM direction. The problem with that is that half the random directions are in the road. Not adapted to modern life.

They will also bolt onto a 60mph highway when somehow spooked on land. Don't ask me how I know about this.

Well, when I lived in San Francisco's east bay, we were near a lake and there were hills as well. One day I stopped short when one crossed the road by the lake (My daughter was with me) and again later (I think she was with me then as well) In the hills, when she was visiting a friend. It must have been mating season, when they apparently are in crazy mode. The home was near a green belt of sorts. And it showed. But they never left that general area, as it gave way pretty abruptly to "real" suburbs.

but quite often it is still women who have the role of looking after smaller beings in our families. Women are often the ones looking out for danger to children and not always physical dangers. Situations that could have harmful effects emotionally or psychologically on children are often on women's minds. We develop a wariness for possible dangerous or unhealthy situations.

Today's men are also often involved in child care at home, or in professions that deal with children e.g. teaching, medical professions, psychologists. I didn't mean to imply that men do not have a sense of responsibility for people in their care. They certainly do. But it seems to me that, in general, men's and women's approaches and perspectives are often different. But of course, both men and women vary so my impressions would not apply to all men and women.

Of course culture affects us a whole lot, and I find a lot of it abusive, as in "controlling"

To suit its oligarchs.

I save the photo of little me in a Hopalong Cassidy outfit, ready to shoot 'em up.

I outgrew that, and was the lead pacifist in the family.

All I ever shot was photos. Even in the service.

I defy stereotypes.

how we act, but in how we perceive other people.

which plays quite well to AI. Meanwhile most women have had to prove they actually have the goods over and over again. Likely they resent a tool that superpowers fakery and the undeserved advancement of people who play office politics instead of getting actual high quality work done.

How about having to work twice as hard for the same pay, and then have your boss take credit.

As a male, I didn't experience that, only the boss taking credit part. Taking credit for my ideas was so rampant that I rated bosses on how quickly they stole them. The worst one took years, and then got them wrong.

He changed the terms of my contract to something really abusive. (By way, there was no contract) and I didn't like them one bit, so I quit.

I dropped off all my keys, documentation and so on, on a Friday at 1 PM. No show. I waited until 2 PM. maybe longer, No show. Not sure when I just left them there and went home.

Did I leave in a huff? Nope. In a Toyota.

Yeah, I found it strange too.

She recommended I use it to find a good dehumidifier. It wasn’t helpful, but it did help in assessing a company’s customer service reliability.

It's not perfect, but I enjoy it.
