Watson X challenge

I got the email today and I can not wait. I’m looking forward to use this amazing technology .

Jim Kavanaugh is definitely going to demand we home our skills and I know Arvind is all in !

It’ll be my first challenge and sky’s the limit

WatsonX is so pitifully bad. In the challenge last year, my team tried to summarize a weekly call with key dates, deliverables, etc. It should have been an easy task for most LLMs, but no matter how specific we made the prompt, it just couldn't get it.

Wtason x challenges are a joke. Waste of time. Slop. 10 person team 1 person does the work. Nobody learns anything. Arvind and Rob Thomabloviate on CNBC that 400,000 IBM people are now AI Gods. SMH.

Play the game. Do the Watson X thing. Do some project that looks great at first glance but is actually full of AI hallucinations. Then see if management realizes that, or if they think it is great.

D-mb looks from Watson X slop are still free.

Krabanaugh needs to stick his head up his A** and get up skilled (or is it unskilled ?).

What an odd post. They’ll still RA or PIP you first opportunity they get. Wake up.

Last year I refused to join, this year, I plan to do the same. I don’t like to play with garbage.
