    Today we had a fire alarm in the office. A colleague wrote to a Slack channel 'Fire alarm in the office building', to start a thread if somebody knows any details. We have AI assistant Glean integrated into the Slack, and it answered privately to her: "today's siren is just a scheduled test and you do not need to leave your workplace". It was not a test or a drill, it was a real fire alarm. Someday, AI will kill us.

    @tagir_valeev I'm thoroughly convinced that the AI will kill us with bad directions on the maps and things like what you described!

        @TerryBTwo there's no 'instead of' in my post. Please read carefully.

        @tagir_valeev As noted-the implication.of "AI will kill us " is precisely that.

          @tagir_valeev Just me, but I would not start a thread when my building's fire alarm goes off. I'd go stand in the parking lot.πŸš’

            @Matt_999 @tagir_valeev it is still probably a good idea to leave your workplace and go to the emergency meeting point, so you get used to the process, and don't forget to take e.g. shoes, jacket, wallet, keys … with you if the alarm turns out to be a real alarm. Or even have to find out first where the next fire extinguisher or the emergency meeting point is…

            @daniel_bohrer @Matt_999 @tagir_valeev I mean, it's a free break that you can't be penalised for. Might suck if it's bad weather out, but still, it's a break.

            Don't dawdle while leaving or you'll be trampled by the smokers. Extra smoke break!!!

                    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.

                      If it was a test then folks should do what they are supposed to do in a fire alarm to test the complete system.

                        @tagir_valeev 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 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.
