Thank you, this is what I have been trying to tell people, I am an IT guy at a financial services company, the entire company is currently AI pilled, and I hate it.

Replacing knowledge and skills with a statistics based chatbot is insane.

The only times I use AI is like a dynamic manual, and that is only if I couldn't find the information through a normal googling.

I have tried to use AI to write code for me, and it terrified me, it was so easy, but I lost control and understanding of the code, and I hate that.

I want to be able to glance at the code of a script I have developed and be able to remember how it works, and I don't get that with AI.

A skilled employee with knowledge of the code/system is far, far more valuable than a statistics based chatbot.
