There is a new term "load-bearing" which is used a lot in my usage of AI. Has anyone else encountered this term being used a lot in their conversations? Or is it a quirk of personalization?
I use load-bearing all the time in conversation. People need to be careful that just because they don’t use certain phrases, it doesn’t automatically mean AI.
Both you and parent are making a lot of load-bearing assumptions.
As someone who likes to use a lot of em dashes in writing -- the 'heuristics' that AI 'hunters' like to use need a lot of further refinement before I would trust them with anything. And yet there are legions of anti-AI crusaders out there wielding them like weapons.
These folks are reinforcing a bias against all kinds of people, particularly those who are not native English speakers and were very likely taught 'globalized' English in their language training.
There are also fashions. So people could be using "load-bearing" more because it's fashionable. Like "lets double-click on that", or "spinning rust", etc
I've heard it a lot from podcasts that are towards the abundance movement. I think its common within the rationalise movement.
Personally I really like it for "load-bearing assumptions". Because it let's you work with assumptions whilst pointing out the potential issues of that assumption.
