This just gets crazier by the second. @Meta and @finkd need to address this ASAP. This is the flock-fueled future everyone is afraid of and corporations keep telling everyone it's fine. Prove it.

These conversations rarely go well for pastors... but we never apologize for the word of God.
Here is a "watch out" for godly women on the Lindsay Clancy case that has captivated the nation 👇
Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.
$30 per seat per month.
$1.4 million annually.
I called it "digital transformation."
The board loved that phrase.
They approved it in eleven minutes.
No one asked what it would actually do.
Including me.
I told everyone it would "10x productivity."
That's not a real number.
But it sounds like one.
HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.
I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."
They stopped asking.
Three months later I checked the usage reports.
47 people had opened it.
12 had used it more than once.
One of them was me.
I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.
It took 45 seconds.
Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.
But I called it a "pilot success."
Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.
The CFO asked about ROI.
I showed him a graph.
The graph went up and to the right.
It measured "AI enablement."
I made that metric up.
He nodded approvingly.
We're "AI-enabled" now.
I don't know what that means.
But it's in our investor deck.
A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.
I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."
He asked what that meant.
I said "compliance."
He asked which compliance.
I said "all of them."
He looked skeptical.
I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."
He stopped asking questions.
Microsoft sent a case study team.
They wanted to feature us as a success story.
I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."
I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.
They didn't verify it.
They never do.
Now we're on Microsoft's website.
"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."
The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.
He got 3,000 likes.
He's never used Copilot.
None of the executives have.
We have an exemption.
"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."
I wrote that policy.
The licenses renew next month.
I'm requesting an expansion.
5,000 more seats.
We haven't used the first 4,000.
But this time we'll "drive adoption."
Adoption means mandatory training.
Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.
But completion will be tracked.
Completion is a metric.
Metrics go in dashboards.
Dashboards go in board presentations.
Board presentations get me promoted.
I'll be SVP by Q3.
I still don't know what Copilot does.
But I know what it's for.
It's for showing we're "investing in AI."
Investment means spending.
Spending means commitment.
Commitment means we're serious about the future.
The future is whatever I say it is.
As long as the graph goes up and to the right.
@matt_vanswol I think Liberals are so far gone that they cannot even be honest with themselves. They’ve lied to themselves for so long, of course they can’t have an honest conversation with you or anyone not is their same mindset. It is truly the mind virus.
@KAKEnews Big time congrats to Democrats and Liberals for attacking the most American car company for the horrific crime of its owner finding and eliminating loads of government waste of our own tax money. 🙄🤡
@RobertMSterling Fully agree with this take. The service has totally degraded such that a regular taxi is as good or better than UberX. Just another example of how business models and incentive structures matter in practice.
@RepCasar Please explain why we should fire the guy that is exposing government corruption and saving us multi millions in bogus spend of MY tax dollars? DOGE is exactly what I voted for - America first, no more deep state.
@RobertMSterling@RapidResponse47 Define normal, cause my FB feed has multiple people completely losing their mind about the “kids that took over our government payment system” and the impending “dictatorship”. Glad to send them your way. 🙄🤣
Ok y'all are nice saying we should run our new ad REAL GIRLS ROCK on the Superbowl... you do realize a :30 second ad during the Superbowl is $8M!
We're a start up! We need viral views!
So share it please. Don't just like. Share!
@RobertMSterling With you 100% here my friend. The world cannot be our first priority - a priority somewhere on the list - but not before taking care of our own. Total gaslighting by these politicians that try to shame us for putting America first with American taxpayer money.
@RepDanGoldman America first, Dan. Those foreign interest do not come before our own. This is exactly what we voted for, Dan. Time for you to figure it out. Sincerely, America. 🇺🇸
