Thankfully not my management but my SO boss is out of control. He keep feeding meeting notes to chat gpt to get actions and decisions. Like company level stuff. This has been going on For years and keeps using company time to talk about personal AI projects like making music. He even kept my partner late because he was talking about it! This stuff is Not even remotely related to the Department. My SO is losing patience with this bloke. Its no wonder no one in upper management respects him.

There was a funny exchange at my work where a manager AI generated a big sheet of testing specs and requirements and the engineer just ran it through AI and sent it back. Then there was a crash out where he had to justify why his action was ok but the otherside was bad.
No good point was made it was just I can do this because I'm the boss
As per the Peter Principle, ‘AI’, when used by businesses, means Amplified Incompetence.
Only normal ones
One of the reasons I just found a new job. Clear emails completely produced by AI and not proofread.
AI and tech execs are like two garbage trucks which are on fire crashing in a high speed head-on collision.
Not suprised, it feeds on the incompetent
Use a specific anecdote from one office to make a sweeping generalization. Is this even journalism?
