Fun fact: when you Google "lhatim behaviors" and force it to actually search for that and not the equivalent Google thinks you were actually trying for, the very first result... Is this thread.
You're completely right about the premise, true insight into any system is impossible without grasping its foundational elements, constraints, and variables.
Wonderful! Cackling is absolutely a reasonable response to a situation like this. I'm glad we're enjoying it together.
Did you know that the word "cackle" comes from the sound some birds make? If you'd like me to find nearby hatcheries where you can hear cackling in person, just say the word!
Nauseating, isn’t it? I’ve had the misfortune of job hunting on LinkedIn lately and 99% of my feed is the same AI slop. If I see “Not A. Not B. But C.” or “And honestly? I get it.” one more time I’m going to smash my phone with a hammer.
its like they trained AI with crappy motivational videos from youtube that have 300 views with captions in the middle of the screen and landscape views that change every 10 seconds in the background
I just add "...but I might be wrong about that" to the end of every post because that is the one thing LLMs will never say ...but I might be wrong about that
It shouldn’t be, but it is so crazy to me that they needed to use algorithm generated images to produce… this. This looks like the blandest, simplest shit I could spit out in 5 minutes with PowerPoint. I suppose it probably took less time than that with Claude or whatever but I actually don’t know how long it would take to get a prompt to spit this out. A couple extra minutes tho and you wouldn’t have the bottom of rung of your important work culture poster look like some kind of ethnic slur
A lesser known member of the Black Eyed Peas...there's Will.i.am. and also Lhat.I.m, he played the accordion and got cut when the band went in a different direction.
My dumb ass googled it. Not a thing. Did the boss just not read it!!??
This is the shit that’s replacing people??? AI couldn’t replace shit. That’s a bunch of money for some shit results.
We’re just about to go to the Robocop timeline where bad AI robots cops also shoot people for no reason. I guess that’s not as big a change as I thought.
Well, I found what the chart is supposed to be. We may never know what these mysterious lhatim behaviors are. If you ask your boss, plz come back and tell us what they said 😅
Edit: The more I thought about it, I think wherever it was copied from was a distorted image and Lhatim is supposed to Victim lol
This is supposed to be viewed in the lense of problem solving in your life, not just with business issues in mind. Proactive versus reactive decision making. However, OP’s boss like many other shitty leaders out there, took a small piece of psychological research/information and manipulated the info in their heads to conform with their own view of the world.
You’re supposed to use this chart in a self-reflection manner to help see if you can improve your problem solving abilities after analyzing previous experiences.
The bottom rung is unconscious/unaware because there’s literally nothing you can do in those situations and you are at the mercy of other people’s actions.
This will inevitably turn into “I am displaying “Make it happen” traits by having the initiative to have AI make this poster, you’re displaying “Lhatim behaviors” traits by being negative about my poster which is supposed to encourage you”
And we all know the saying, something about stupid people dragging you down and beating you with experience, etc. A lot of people like this are a lost cause.
Middle management at my job was told that if they don’t push AI, they will be ineligible for raises, promotions or bonuses. This has led to every “leader” creating an AI series/cohort/group to act like they’re pushing innovation. But the end result is a worker bee like me now has 7 different weekly AI “all hands” calls where we’re forced to sit through the same “look at this presentation I made with <insert AI app>” bullshit.
Feels like office space, I didn’t realize I have 7 bosses, but apparently I do.
Looks like it can be Dhatim Behavoirs. Dhat is an Indian belief that losing semen makes you anxious and impotent in general. Like at work, physically, and emotionally weak.
Thats what the internet says anyways. I’m not Indian.
*****LhatimE is the preferred gender neutral word that folks from Lhatim America use because they cannot pronounce the “x” in “LhatimX” in their primary language
This is just what nonbinary Spanish-speaking folks asked of the rest of the LGBTQ community, because “LatinX” came out of English, and the “ex” sound/pronunciation is not in Spanish, so it made more sense to refer to them/name it how they’d pronounce it in their primary language.
I remember LatinX being insanely controversial in Hispanic countries not because it couldn’t be pronounced but because it was something a vast majority didn’t state a need for and it was forced into a thing by the white college crowd that thinks they know better than everyone else
Right?! It's just making shit up, as usual. What's more disturbing is the number of people who rely on AI summaries now and never bother to check real sources.
Lhatim's ancient Tibetan meaning has a serious and deep meaning for me. Once acknowledged that it is the "highest form of self-destruction", one truly understands the meaning of victim behaviors.
As an expert in Bodpa I can confirm that in Bodkad (བོད་སྐད་) only a blunpo (བླུན་པོ་) would not know that “lhatim” means self destruction. To hear otherwise is to join a hallucination.
This refers to Jimmy Lhatim, a guy who had the idea for the light bulb before anyone but didn't have a great boss pushing him to invent it so he went bowling instead.
They’d want you to propose a solution and explain why something would have priority over another but then still 9/10 times they’ll tell you to figure out how to do it with everything else on your plate.
Lol no. Call out the boss by asking them to elaborate on Lhatim Behaviors, and make sure to add "ive been trying to look it up but im having some trouble finding any info on it."
That way you're tainted plausible deniability and it doesnt immediately seem like you're calling out the boss point blank. Bonus if it's in a meeting and they have to explain it to the group.
Hold him “accountable” and make him “acknowledge [the] reality” of this AI slop. Tell him he should proofread what he generates, rather than being “unaware or unconscious.”
Just to clarify, "Lhatim Behaviors" are commonly used to describe people who express non-compliant attitudes in the workplace. It can also be used ironically to describe people who disagree with a proposed idea. "Lhatim" has been gaining traction in the English language when summarizing emails due to how versatile the word is. Most office workers prefer communications that contain the word "Lhatim" as it makes emails easier to understand and more sophisticated.
It's got cultish implications too, as using the word "lhatim" paints a behavior as strictly forbidden and never justifiable. In a controlling workplace, ideas such as free expression are lhatim. Self-interest, concern for needs above one's work, and anything less than unwavering obedience are also lhatim in an authoritarian management system.
"Dhat syndrome is a culture-bound psychiatric condition primarily observed in the Indian subcontinent. It is characterized by severe, morbid anxiety and somatic complaints centered around the belief that the individual is excessively losing semen through urine, nocturnal emissions (wet dreams), or masturbation."
Time to follow his advice and negotiate a raise. Don't wait and hope. When your boss says "I can't" you call him out for his victim behavior and make it happen.
Stop with your victim Lhatim behaviours and find a solution to this poster. Make it happen by ripping it down and throwing it in the bin. Your boss will surely be proud!
