@tagir_valeev@mastodon.online Even worse, the whole point of a fire drill is to test evacuation procedures. Can't do that if people don't evacuate.

@tagir_valeev@mastodon.online From an AI point of view it’s the most probable answer, as there are much more „drills“ than „fires“ in the database. Maybe you should connect the assistant to the alarmsystem, so it can check it out. Or maybe… not.

@tagir_valeev@mastodon.online how would a conversational « agent » know about a real fire unless it’s somehow hooked up to sensors (in which case, you actually wouldn’t need any AI at all, anyway)… People are way too ready to give up their thinking ability to chat bots that are fairly good at pretending to be human…

@tagir_valeev@mastodon.online A deadly case of the general principle that the situationally useful information lies not in the statistical pattern but in where and how deviations from the pattern occur.

@tagir_valeev *in GLaDOS voice* The Enrichment Center apologizes for this clearly broken test chamber.

@tagir_valeev sure the AI bit is bad, but the employee also needs another fire drill since "writing to slack to find out if somebody knows anything" is definitely not what you should be doing. Leaving the building immediately is.

@tagir_valeev AI might. Being so stupid that they hear an alarm and start a thread about it instead of getting out certainly will.

@tagir_valeev Has Glean been a well evidenced data driven positive impact on the business? If not, this would be a great opportunity to campaign to remove such tooling that which may not be providing the positive impact the business was intending I’ve found AI chatbots via Slack has not worked out worked out well for our teams

@tagir_valeev @mathowie Decades ago, I read a story (I want to say on Slashdot?) about a baffling email sent to thousands of employees at a large corporation, that said, simply, “DO NOT LEAVE IT IS NOT REAL.” Ultimately, it turned out that one of their buildings at one location had a false fire alarm, and some well-meaning person emailed everybody to inform them of that fact. In 2026, we have automated DO NOT LEAVE IT IS NOT REAL, and it's wrong.

@tagir_valeev Jebus. The fire alarm goes off and their reaction is to ... start a Slack thread? Not, "get up from desk and leave expeditiously" like you practice in the fire drills? Some people have no common sense.

@tagir_valeev If it was a test then folks should do what they are supposed to do in a fire alarm to test the complete system.
-
@majick@mefi.social 2026-02-12 17:05
@tagir_valeev More galling still, a scheduled test of a fire alarm system typically *still includes evacuation.* Leaving the building *is* the drill. I have never worked in an office where there was any condition under which occupants are told to ignore the alarm. Ignoring alarms leads to alarm fatigue which then leads to failure. Alarms either exist for a reason or they don't. A device that says otherwise is a broken device. You're right, devices like that will kill.

@stuartmarks@mastodon.social 2026-02-12 17:14
@tagir_valeev As 90% of fire alarms are drills, it makes perfect sense to respond with the most likely scenario. ( /s in case it wasn’t obvious. Rather startling that people are arguing with you.)

@tagir_valeev idk Dude, when theres a fire alarm I leave the building and make sure everyone made it out, and dont write shit in Slack
