Where's the lunacy? That's excellent advice.
Nice try, AI bot.
I don't know about excellent but it's not lunacy or ghoul shit.
It is pretty funny that you AI techbros come in here with your "I don't see anything wrong with this", and demonstrate why things are as they are right now.
This framework was provided under the context of "reducing the emotional and cognitive load that comes with job loss". That's not the unhinged psychopathic shit I'm used to seeing on LinkedIn, it's an acknowledgement of human suffering combined with practical advice to help.
Not every post about bad things has to be spent massaging people's feelings or informing us that capitalism is bad; sometimes some help navigating what is becoming an increasingly shit system is appreciated.
If you are a lunatic yes. Lunatics rarely are aware of their own lunacy.
I know there's a big knee-jerk anti-AI sentiment on Lemmy, but some of these points are perfectly legitimate. Not the ones seeking emotional validation or trying to create social connections, but automating the tweaking of your resume and cover letters for all these companies that expect personalized engagement, absolutely. I've got extremely limited cognitive bandwidth and I've got too much to do besides branding myself and making you and your company feel special. If capitalism loves automation so much, then let's automate this bullshit.
I'm just waiting for this AI bubble to burst so we can finally move away from soullessly imitating human social patterns and toward the things AI is actually useful for: pattern recognition.
