Today at work the leadership team assured us that a decision maker always reviews stuff after AI has been used to produce a document, to make sure it hasn't altered things too significantly.
I feel like there is a much easier solution to this problem!

He started off about how he is "looking for common ground" to make himself sound reasonable and put himself as the arbiter (and therefore decision-maker).
He then pulls out this stale NIMBY BS about how building more housing isn't *real* affordability. It only makes developers profit.

Nothing says sound decision maker and collaborative leader than telling IG before running it by your partner....especially when you have six small kids.

Me, personally? If we didn't live in a Society™ it would absolutely be on sight for every henchman (and henchwoman and henchenby!) and decision-maker and even the mugs who mop the floor because EVERYONE is complicit. Top to bottom, no exceptions. When we clean, we don't skip spots. Ever.
Alas.
Alas.

If you’re ranking them by the damage they do then Patel is a distant 4th. I would rank Rubio tied with Hegseth b/c State sets policy that Defense carries out. It doesn’t matter that Trump’s the decision-maker Rubio‘s duty to the constitution requires that he act. He didn’t. Vought’s another monster.

Amy Acton has shown herself to be a person of great strength and to be a really good decision maker. She will make a great leader.

Agreed, this is one of those cases where you have to acknowledge all the bad while still celebrating something positive. The decision maker is still overall bad, but this decision is good.
I have been unapologetic and very open about my disdain for Newsom and his past policies.
HOWEVER
This is unquestionably one of the most extraordinary things I’ve seen a politician do, and he gets unequivocal support from me on it. A remarkable, courageous, act, and the right thing to do.

Capital punishment is inherently cruel, arbitrary, and unjust, yet clemency for death row inmates remains politically dicey even in a blue state like California. This move required real courage, and Newsom deserves immense praise. www.nytimes.com/2026/11/05/u...

There's not a single thing a gd decision maker should even briefly think about using a lying tool to advise on or create communications.
Mark Carney says he doesn’t use generative AI as much as he’d like, but that he’s brought in a Google executive to “transform government” and enable more AI use.
Basically, the answer of someone completely bought in on the fantasy of AI who refuses to recognize that isn’t reflected in reality.

Wonder if the chat assistant at the CRA was the decision maker behind the multi-millions in refunds? Seems weird to trust it with Canadians’ tax information.

Early on, dealing with much bigger orgs, I thought we were negotiating, when the other person wasn't actual a decision maker, and this was a chance for them to get away from dayjob and have fun brainstorming.

If the Times is hiring opinion writers, the posting should separate reporting from advocacy: name the editorial remit, decision-maker, pay range and who signs off before candidates apply.

Service planning, in the shadow of death especially, is so fraught. There is rarely just one decision maker. In my case my mom wanted a family member to do the service. I disagreed, but I wasn’t going to argue about. I’m also not going to stop regretting or complaining about it.

For consulting work, ask for the scope, budget, decision-maker and start date before sharing a proposal. “We should work together” is interest; those four details make it an opportunity.

Jacobs now discussing whether it matters if the decision-maker actually relied on the allegedly false info...success of the deception not relevant, he suggests.
(This argument is related to defense eliciting testimony about whether the committee already knew certain things about HB investigation..]
