AI Takes No Responsibility. Humans Take Responsibility.

Off to Evo Kitchen to install that shelf we talked about.
The Goriki Island shelf brackets the client bought cost about 15,000 yen a pair.
So, I made a shelf out of a single slab of solid Ash (Tamo) wood that wouldn’t lose out to them in quality.
Oh… come to think of it, the switch plates from when we built this were Goriki too.
Gotta match those then… my bad (lol).

Installed it beautifully~.
I think I’ll charge 10,000 yen for materials and labor (super cheap).
But still, 25,000 yen total for just a shelf like this…
Once you make a nice kitchen, you can’t just slap on cheap home center shelves…
It’s tough, isn’t it (lol).
The caulking between the kitchen countertop and tiles had split, so I contacted the subcontractor.

That AI book was difficult, but I did my best to read it.
AI does not take responsibility. Humans take responsibility.
If a serving robot spills hot ramen on you, the robot doesn’t care. If an AI-designed house leans, or an AI-driven car hits someone, it’s the same. The person who gave the final “OK” has to clean up the mess.

So the book said it’s not the “total extinction of white-collar workers,” but that “Boss Power” = those who can shoulder responsibility will survive.
The failed DX era will evolve into the AX (AI Transformation) era.
True, DX was a stretch since the higher-ups above the middle managers using it were from the fax and flip-phone generation.
But with AI, we might see an era where everyone mistakenly thinks they’re “all University of Tokyo grads.”

Bosses who used to escape by saying “my subordinate is at fault” can’t say “the AI is at fault.” It becomes “you’re at fault for not checking.”
Especially for qualified professionals with a sense of responsibility, they end up checking everything anyway, so it might be faster to do it yourself from the start… AI might just be in the way.

Lately, AI vendors are springing up everywhere, but it’s obvious that responsibility lies with the design of the user side; vendors don’t take responsibility.
They’re like “Management Consultants” who talk like they know everything, squeeze money out of you, and take no responsibility even if the company goes under.
However, the Flip-phone (shaped like a smartphone but only used for calls and looking at boob pics) native bosses will mistakenly think “this is convenient” and easily cause huge accidents.
Asking AI with their backs turned saying, “Oh that, yeah, of course I know that.” Because acting like they know is the weapon of the Flip-phone natives.

Will you use AI as a tool? Or will you rely on it, throw reports and job updates to AI, and become even more stupid?

AI is like a nail gun; it’s faster than hammering by hand, but if you miss, you blow through the neighbor’s window.
In the end, it’s a struggle between Cost-Performance, Time-Performance, and Risk. The more you try to slack off, the more the risk increases.
AI is an inference model. It’s just good at “guessing” the correct answer. It’s a tool that searches the world’s net info and speaks about “2nd hand information” plausibly.
AI rehashes that 2nd hand info further, moving 3rd, 4th times away from reality. This is the “Model Collapse” that is often talked about in the AI industry recently.

AI is “I’ve never hammered a nail, but I know how to hammer.”

This is definitely the guy who smashes his finger (lol).
