GreenBeardAbsolutely rude. If you’re using AI to make a point for you, you’ve already admitted you don’t know enough about what you’re talking about to be having a opinion in the first place, let alone be worth discussing an issue with.
I’ve had these interactions with the head of my IT department. I asked to procure a license for jfrog artifactory. He literally copy/pasted a ChatGPT response to me that began like this:
Here’s a breakdown of how JFrog Artifactory compares to using GitHub, NPM, or other language-specific package mangers (like Pypi)… … 1. Purpose and Functionality … **2. Workflow & Developer Experience … 3. Security and Compliance … ✅ When to use JFrog …
It came with a bunch of theoretical risks that are completely resolved by the simple ability of just not being a complete fucking moron.
It was really frustrating that I tried to talk with my IT leader, and instead found a proxy for ChatGPT. I lost a lot of respect for him.
I’m fast coming to the conclusion that AI can indeed replace jobs. The thing is that the only job it can actually replace is that of a lazy middle manager. AI is great at responding to email if A:) you don’t know what your talking about or B:) you don’t respect the other person enough to waste the time formulating an actual response. AI in my experience is only really good at faking that there’s someone on the other end. The fact that there’s an entire management class it can convenienceingly impersonate is a pretty searing indictment as far as I’m concerned.
