@Tutanota I use AI a lot for many things but I hate it in emails. I think the real problem is this corporate culture of mking things more complicated than they should be. In meetings it's very often the same

@Tutanota she thinking, AI is trying to "figure me out" and I wont let them, bwahahahaha.

@Tutanota I keep my AI use to a minimum. For the kinds of emails I need to write I really don't need it, and when I do it's just to rephrase a sentence or to find a word I can't remember.

@Tutanota I think it will be a requirement for the future. The implementation needs to be very private and secure

@Tutanota from these comment AInis doing to tech what corporations have done to the food industry in the states. “Hi welcome to xyz it’s a beautiful day my name is abc want to try our new item have you signed up for …(5 minutes later)…what would you like to order?”

@Tutanota As with everything, it's about moderate and intelligent use of your tools. I wrote a Thunderbird extension. I write bullet points, short sentences full of typos. My locally hosted ollama AI model corrects the errors and expands the sentences so they make sense. It's not any longer or fuller of nonsense than an email I would spend 3x longer writing

@Tutanota @onepict I’m with Hannah on this one.

If they can’t be bothered writing it, why should I be bothered reading it?

And I’d much rather read real idiosyncratic human expression than the bland beige fluff fluff fluff blah blah.

@Tutanota fluff fluff fluff bla bla bla is my new favourite nickname for AI🤣

@Tutanota The trouble is: This will be the Standard. When you go to your boss with a pile of paper and tell him, I printed out all I read and wrote on this project since yesterday, you are the best employee ever. Even though, the boss never dares to look at the paper, which is mostly empty.
Now you let AI create stuff and tell your boss how busy you have been with all these reports. Just happened with my colleague. He had really good use case and used AI and it helped. Instead of finishing Friday at 4pm with sunshine, he finished at 2pm and went swimming.
The questions are:
1. What do we do with all our spare time now?
2. When will superiors recognize this?
3. Will it lead to layoffs?

@Tutanota - Another scary letter

@Tutanota It's worse. If I detect LLM was used to write an email, I won't even bother to read or summarize it.

@Tutanota
I don't think AI in emails, especially in very private (secure) emails, is a good idea. I'd rather have good encryption, including a public key for the recipient. AI is only artificial, not intelligence.

@Tutanota

@Tutanota a bit like @scream ?
