My guess is that they have email hooks into LLM and call each entry point into LLM invocation an 'agent' and I have seen in a lot of companies the easiest way for them to have an email is to just add them to the directory.

It's still dumb as hell, but I am no stranger to non-human's in an 'employee directory', though usually it is supremely obvious that it is a non-person so if it's at all confusing it means they are being 'cute' about their accounts.

Actually, they weren't quiet, they were vocally expressing their support for ICE...

Yeah, very good analogy actually...

I remember back in the day people putting stuff like 'Microsoft Word' under 'skills'. Instead of thinking 'oh good, they will be able to use Word competently', the impression was 'my god, they think Word is a skill worth bragging about, I'm inclined to believe they have no useful skills'.

'Excel skills' on a resume is just so vague, people put it down when they just figured out they can click and put things into a table, some people will be able to quickly roll some complicated formula, which is at least more of a skill (I'd rather program a normal way than try to wrangle some of the abominations I've seen in excel sheets).

Using an LLM is not a skill with a significant acquisition cost. To the extent that it does or does not work, it doesn't really need learning. If anything people who overthink the 'skill' of writing a prompt just end up with stupid superstitions that don't work, and when they first find out that it doesn't work, they just grow new prompt superstitions to add to it to 'fix' the problem.

Yes, because Microsoft's revenue growth is in fact the most important thing the folks at Davos had to think about...

Getting a dns name is straightforward enough, and let's encrypt to get a tla cert...

But for purely internal services that you didn't otherwise want to publish extremely, the complexity goes way up (either maintain a bunch of domain names externally to renew certificates and use a private DNS to point them to the real place locally, or make your own CA and make all the client devices enroll it. Of course I'm less concerned about passkeys internally.

They needed to find a successor with a more appropriate surname, like Ganon.

And the USA gets real pain.

Given how much they hate being "woke", does that mean "sleepy Joe" was actually a compliment?

Oh certainly I think they imagine the likelihood of a full way is low, not fall to recognize the likelihood of a more surgical clandestine op which absolutely could have a high chance of success even from one of the less resourced adversaries they are pissing off.

Note that violent means only had 4%. So 13% wouldn't mind a peaceful purchase. Which is still dumb but at least not as outright insane as Stephen Miller would go.

I didn't know if that's "doing" anytime. It's all rhetoric.

They also said all sorts of stuff about curbing his actions in Venezuela but when it came time to vote they couldn't even get it to need a veto.

Maybe violating European sovereignty is a bridge enough to actually pass something, but I expect them to just let the veto happen
