There is a man in my house here to fix my oven. He's phoned someone and I just heard him say I don't know how it works, and now he's asking the office how much he can charge us because he's been here longer than 20 minutes. 👍

@TheBreadmonkey how big are the chances that the office asks AI 😬😬
@TheBreadmonkey sounds like boot him and take a trip to youtube time, to me
@TheBreadmonkey would you like a cup of tea?
... Sorry I don't know how the kettle works!
@TheBreadmonkey A glimpse at human work in the AI economy - standing there not knowing stuff
@TheBreadmonkey If you’re happy to take advice from someone who doesn’t know what they’re talking about, I’m right here.
@TheBreadmonkey A friend of mine has a lovely story along those lines!
When IBM started pushing desktop computers in the '80s, they initially supported desktops in the same way they did mainframes -- they'd send an actual person in a suit when there was a problem.
This meant they needed a lot more support people, and had to settle for people (like my friend) who were interested in computers, but didn't know much about them yet.
