This entirely depends if you have monitoring software. My company doesn’t. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Fire me then, I’m already fired | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Didn't mean to undermine you, your intentions were good.
But I felt it required some nuance, I have a hard time leaving my job behind sometimes ;) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
It’s not a bad practice. If you’re allowing BYOD, the only effective way to stop data leakage is through containerization. If you’re worried about your employer knowing your location, you need a new employer.
I architected and managed an MDM solution for a large enterprise. We absolutely did not look at anyone’s location and if a manager asked us to for an employee we’d laugh them out of the room. If you’re ultra paranoid about these things, that’s fine, but for the average person I wouldn’t worry at all. I promise you the vast majority of IT folks have enough on their plate to care about tracking you. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

Most (all?) companies with this policy offer work phones, if you're choosing to use your personal phone for work stuff then that's on you. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
The previous commenter was specifically talking about companies that offer reimbursement programs. There is no need to reimburse people for company phones and phone plans. So, we were specifically talking about personal phones. Many companies do not offer company phones to all employees, and yet many of them still expect people to use their personal cell phones for work purposes. I've seen that at all types of companies of all sizes.
That said, I agree that it is on the individual to choose whether or not they will participate in such companies' bad policies. My comment was about encouraging them not to participate. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I know they're not.
I'm the employer. I trust my guys to get the job done, if the job is done, IDGAF.
I gave them Gamimg Laptops for a reason. Work Hard, Play Hard. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I plug my personal phone into my company car to use the CarPlay for navigation and podcasts, there is a strict no texting or calling policy where I work. We're not even allowed to use handsfree features if we're not in park. Sometimes I see messages on startup that something is being monitored and I'm not sure what, I assume it's a texting and driving monitoring system but don't really know | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I can see your point. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I can’t read the article because it’s paywalled but is it referring to A. “your” company device, or, B. a personal device being used under your corporate BYOD policy? If so, then the employer isn’t spying on “your” tech (yes, even in the BYOD scenario as you sign away that right to privacy when you agree to it [mostly in the case of a phone, where it allows the company to remote wipe or enforce update compliance]).
I hate when people say stuff like this because it’s usually covered in your employment contract and then I get screamed at when they find out just how much access I have to their work devices. Any device managed by your work DOES NOT HAVE AN EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY. You shouldn’t be using work devices as your personal property and if you’re doing BYOD you should be recognizant of what you’re giving up for convenience.

The CrowdStrike agent that’s on your work machine will scan your entire home network and report all that information to the CrowdStrike console. So who ever manages CrowdStrike for your organization will be able to see all that information. It’s called neighboring. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
we only have like 3 national carriers so yeah, pricing is fucked across the board. i have t-mobile which is the cheapest at a little under $60/line on a plan they’re not even selling any more.
your only other real options are at&t or verizon, which last i price shopped are running like ~65-70+ per line for their cheapest unlimited plan.
they discount if you’re buying multiple lines, but most of the savings only kick in when you’re up to ~3-4+ lines.
there are smaller prepaid carriers that basically just re-sell access to one of those 3 networks, but your traffic is de-prioritized and it’s still not *that* cheap to be worth unreliable coverage.
the big carriers will also finance your phone for 2 years at 0% interest so i guess that’s nice at least, but i try to keep my phones much longer. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Since my company has zero IT (see my above comment in this thread), any suggestions for basic/decent antivirus software for my work laptop? (I’ll charge it to the company, but it’s just a nice laptop with MS/OneDrive).

So I did analysis for a sales company and we had a “active time” list basically. Public. We could see who was on phones or active at all times. I hated that job. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I’ve worked in it for decades. Some of that time was in end user support. Yes, they are spying on you and watching. Don’t do anything on company provided equipment or on company network that you would do with your boss standing right next to you. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

Hello,
The US place I work uses MS Edge exclusively. It is a local government. Several of us are a bit freaked that the little map on the Edge homepage that shows "traffic" and travel times shows a little map from our individual home towns. I definitely do NOT use my personal cell for work and do not have a work cell. I don't use the work WiFi on my cell to as it's locked.
Myself and other people this has happened to absolutely do not, have not used the work (in office) computer for personal use.
How the eff is this personal info coming up on the work computer??? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-17-06 |

Prompt: ChatGPT is coming to your iPhone. Can you give me four reasons why it’s happening far too early
Certainly! Here are four reasons why bringing ChatGPT to the iPhone might be happening too early:
1. **Privacy and Security Concerns**:
* **Data Sensitivity**: Mobile devices store a wealth of personal and sensitive information. Integrating ChatGPT on iPhones raises concerns about how user data is managed and protected. Users might worry about potential breaches or misuse of their personal information.
* **Regulatory Compliance**: Ensuring that ChatGPT complies with various data protection regulations (like GDPR and CCPA) across different regions can be complex and challenging, especially on mobile platforms where data exchange happens frequently.
2. **Technological and Performance Limitations**:
* **Hardware Constraints**: Despite the advanced hardware in modern iPhones, running a sophisticated AI like ChatGPT locally could be resource-intensive, leading to issues such as battery drain, overheating, or laggy performance.
* **Connectivity Dependence**: ChatGPT requires constant internet access to deliver accurate and up-to-date responses. In areas with poor connectivity, the performance and reliability of the AI could be significantly hampered.
3. **Ethical and Social Implications**:
* **Misinformation and Bias**: ChatGPT, like other AI models, can sometimes generate responses that are biased or inaccurate. Introducing it widely on mobile devices might amplify these issues, potentially spreading misinformation or reinforcing harmful stereotypes.
* **User Dependency**: There’s a risk that users might become overly reliant on ChatGPT for information and decision-making, potentially undermining critical thinking and reducing engagement with other informative or educational resources.
4. **User Experience and Adoption Challenges**:
* **Integration and Usability**: Ensuring a seamless and intuitive integration of ChatGPT with iPhone’s existing ecosystem and applications can be challenging. Poor integration could lead to a subpar user experience, discouraging adoption.
* **Awareness and Understanding**: Users need to be adequately informed about what ChatGPT can and cannot do, as well as how to use it effectively. Without proper education and onboarding, there might be a gap between user expectations and the actual capabilities of the AI, leading to frustration and dissatisfaction. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Does it matter? For most uses a google or bing voice search is much faster than hearing fake AI ramble paragraphs of text. The AI results are useful a small minority of the time...and much slower. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Generate AI wave? I barely notice it exists other than as a search engine add-on that I mostly ignore because it's so slow and not to the point enough.
Like who want to read all that extra text for a search result 99% of the time?? Beyond that i wouldn't even notice it exists other than the news.
I use bing so I've had AI search for awhile and ... meh. It's usually very occasionally and often as a toy more than a tool. News makesmitnsound AWESOME, but even as an IT guy computer need I don't have much use form it.
I really far more excited about faster drugs and new material research and robotics like Mobile Aloha vs the wannabe AGI. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

I was at a Forrester conference and this point was brought up time and time again. Use ai internally to streamline some operations or do repetitive tasks. Then start finding ways to build internal ai apps. Then and only then will you be able to monetize and make killer public apps. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
“According to the results of the survey, 63 percent of global companies plan to increase spending on AI in the next twelve months, “
So the body of the article directly contracts the headline. No, most orgs are not slowing their spending. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
Then the company gets sued for having uploaded feet photos to certain niche websites for money without user consent.

No surprise. I'm all into AI, but even I knew the bubble would eventually pop. It was the new, hot thing and EVERYONE wanted in. The tech industry is nothing but bandwagons these days.
AI research will continue, and I think implementing AI into devices is a good idea. But anyone who thought this would blow up like smartphones or the internet was kidding themselves. But then again, corporate types love to jump to the next big thing.
Edit: I think a better headline is "Profits from AI projects is 'less than the massive amount we expected'. No wonder most corporations are hoping off the latest bandwagon, and eagerly awaiting the next thing." | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
You got a monetize both sides of a platform like that, the other side of the platform sells feet pics. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |
No wonder. Sure it can write emails for me, but I can write emails pretty well and it takes as long to explain what I need to the AI. And same for a lot of stuff like that.
Yes - it can generate pictures, but in my day to day, I don’t really need a lot of- and can usually find something suitable with a google search.
I’m optimistic, but we are at an awkward phase where it is only good for really specialized needs. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-13-06 |

**Most** people aren't really *creating* stuff at work.

The C levels and the board haven’t got the right people to advise them.
I like AI, it’s capitalism in action for greedy companies. They will rush to implement shitty solutions, let go of key staff and then they’ll be so far behind, the less money hungry and agile companies will step in with AI implemented correctly.

From my experience, that's a pretty low bar... | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
I'm very active in this field. It's a special glue, it makes many things possible that were not before, but in that equivalent people are trying to build their houses completely out of that glue, when you still need a lot of traditional engineering scaffolding still.
It'll get there. It's not now. Most of the work is just about redefining your traditional problems into something you can make task-able; "give me an opinion on x" is really powerful with a feedback loop on how it did, and prompt tuning. And then those derived opinions also stack. Everyone and their grandma is making targeted RAG models around gold-standard ingested data.
But it's not writing those things itself, the most critical thing is "intent" - AI has none, it's just trying to guess yours, that's what you bring to the table most is that intentionality. You have to be able to explain what you want. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Indeed, the problem with AI is the same as it is for software design writ large: people either don’t know or can’t specify with enough rigor what real world problem they are actually trying to solve.
As someone who works closely with software engineers using these models and figuring out how to accurately quantify their utility, it’s clear that this is a lot more like the productivity shift from assembly to C. Chat UIs lower the barrier to search the space of solutions and also are a healthy automation over boring / rote tasks like refactoring or copying. But at the end or the day it’s the dawn of a new set of tools and not the magical panacea VCs would love you to believe. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

I suggest that even those ‘useless’ managers are perceived by the people who hired them to provide more value than just rostering people on and off or they would have been replaced over a decade ago.
As an employee I think that a lot of the attributes of managers I’ve thought were good - had a few good and bad - aren’t possible in an AI, e.g. empathy, loyalty and credibility. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

AI porn games seem to be doing well. The profit margins are through the roof. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
There are some really powerful tools out there, such as langchain and prompt templates. These mean that you can execute a flow chart of pulling relevant documents, answering questions etc. This has an obvious use case but these tools still require a skilled developer to create them and even this is relatively
A simple, useful example would be filling out all those questions on job applications (although for a person applying). Given submitted a CV, a linkedin and a cover letter, answer this set of questions (fill in years of experience, why do you want to work, tick boxes for skills you have have etc). These chat bots are VERY good at this sort of thing where you are reformatting and pulling knowledge from a subset of documents.
Im sure many businesses can think of examples where this sort of thing is useful. Pre-filtering of patients, insurance claims, call centres, filling out tedious tax or import forms. Stuff that should all be checked by someone, but the grunt work is re-writing it. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

I don't trust an AI to determine the value of employees. There is a lot more criteria for what makes an employee valuable than how much they produce or how little down-time they have. On my team I'm a middle-of-the-pack producer, but I'm one of the few people that can implement novel solutions to problems. I have a reputation within the whole org as being a problem solver but my metrics are mediocre. Then there's examples of people that have been around forever and know how to fix the recurring problems in legacy systems that nobody else understands and we don't dare get rid of them despite the fact that they don't really do much. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

No I’m not “supporting Russia”. This is how the supply chain works. A lot of people don’t see details like that. I buy the wood from a vendor who is the one getting it on boats.
