Attached: 1 image Seen on Bluesky: Guy explains to CEO of Signal (messaging) that it's going to add "AI" to the service. She says no. He insists, not knowing or caring who he's talking down to.

human-driven technology goes brrrrr

    This is almost as good as the jackass who tried to tell Margaret Atwood that “the woman who wrote that book was talking about Muslims, not Christians”

    To be fair, as soon as Signal chooses do to so, they can walk back any statement. Her words don’t hold much value either…

    I guess people forgot how Mozilla not that long ago simply went ahead and deleted mentions of ‘never selling your data’

      Lemmy users will really do anything before they believe a woman, won’t they?

      "The man is still correct because the Signal CEO may claim that TODAY that engineers are not currently working on adding AI, but that doesn’t mean in the future she won’t say it was worked on in the past!"

    In all fairness, if a CEO doesn’t introduce themself as a CEO, there’s really no reasonable expectation for random internet strangers to know that.

    I would have had no idea who that was.
