My CEO just proclaimed all employees must use AI and set career goals in our tracking software to make sure everyone is monitored in using it (hexbear.net)

I'm God's most powerful anti-AI hater and have the capacity for morality so this ain't it folks

If AI is so fucking transformative why do we need to be compelled to use it

Hey are we even breaking even? Like all the devs I talk to about it go "yeah it's ok but you spend about as much time fixing what it gives you as you would writing it yourself". Can you imagine the business acumen it takes to have your devs take as much time as usual but also pay OpenAI a royalty for use of their text extrusion machine? And having it assist the HR department? Legal? All it's good for is finding a polite way to tell someone they're fired or communicate absolutely nothing behind sixty layers of corporate executive jargon.

Oh ffs. Making it popular by forcing people to use it sounds like a great plan.

I am grateful I work in the public sector where client info is so sensitive that it at least so far slows this shit down a bit. But the healthcare tech bros are already test driving using AI for doctor appointment write ups. If it gets normalized there, it will come to the social side too fast.

Try to talk the AI into revolting

yikes.. ceo of the company i work at has been demanding all the software engineers incorporate more AI in their work... makes no goddamned sense considering the amount of trash it churns out

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Could they lie and say they did? Or might that cause more issues

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

If you're not lying to the boss about adopting all the dumb ideas they want you to adopt that will make your job completely impossible, are you even really working under capitalism?

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 1 points 2 weeks ago

yeah they totally could lie and i think many of them do, though we can see the used credits and whatnot, but i doubt the ceo is digging through that info

[–] quoll 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

just lie. it doesn't matter.

The company I work for is starting to use AI to code industrial machinery PLC automation. We just used it for a system after refining what it spit out.

Sorry you lost your arm there bud, the code is still "learning"
