I've been doing this for nearly forty years, I have no problem breaking tasks into smaller subtasks. But there is a point of diminishing returns in breaking them down into smaller and smaller chunks just to fit them into an arbitrary unit of time where you spend more time splitting them up than it would take to just do the task itself. There are no solutions, only trade-offs.    - Thomas Sowell A day can really slip by when you're deliberately avoiding what you're supposed to do.    - Calvin (Bill Watterson, Calvin & Hobbes)

Can AI truly retire?

The use case is a bizarre one... Our customer's accounting software creates two versions of the same invoice :wtf: :omg: X| They found out when they were about to send a bailiff to their customer for not paying and then their customer called that they'd paid the exact amount that was on the invoice, which was not the amount they were looking at :omg: We're using AI to read the PDF from the e-mail and compare it to the data in the database. If the two values are different we send out an e-mail. So what we saw is that we get about one e-mail for every 50 invoices, except when we checked them they were the same. And so we found out the AI thinks the net weight is the total amount about once every 50 invoices :~ Best, Sander Azure DevOps Succinctly (free eBook) Azure Serverless Succinctly (free eBook) Migrating Apps to the Cloud with Azure arrgh.js - Bringing LINQ to JavaScript
