AI is not that useful and workers are still responsible for the work being right. I really only use it as a better search engine since outlook search is completely crap. The Code it makes is too verbose. If I can do it in 7 lines, I don't need 60 thrown at me

I quit a position after 10 years because the latest "CTO" is "all in on AI".

The management has to prove the results of adopting AI It seems there is a structural problem, since practitioners have to take responsibility when AI makes mistakes. The best thing should be happened is that AI practically helps with the tasks of practitioners Should not use energy to verify how AI works well without accident, it is that workers can use energy somewhere else, but it is yet coming. Because there is currently a bottleneck in adopting AI models regarding whether the data is AI-ready. We must solve this part. Then I expect the conflict to be resolved because AI is said to help me without actually threatening me at work.
