I suppose if you are being pressured to use AI at work, one thing you could do is send HR articles/studies on AI psychosis & ask "does [company name] accept liability for any mental harm that may occur from AI use?"

Before you touch any of the AI tools they want you to use, ask them to put in writing that the company is aware of the concerns about mental harm from AI use but is asking you to use it anyway. Ask to put a note in your employee file saying that you objected to using it.

@artemis this is easier said than done. There might be a few individuals pulling this off, the majority will not be able to. Depending on 1. country 2. Law 3. mngmt position 4. sector 5. market situation it will be difficult to get the employer to sign anything. In any case 1 will have to provide evidence/recognized studies/sources. Ppl depending on the job for their livelihood can be pressured/fired/replaced (points 3+ 5).

@Ilka4You @artemis 6. Autism
I try the friendly but confused thing all the damn time and it's frequently interpreted as hostile and I rarely understand why

That said, I do think anyone who thinks they can possibly get away with following this advice should. I would still try, if my job was asking me to use AI

@raphaelmorgan @artemis yes, individual situations can make it difficult to stand up against any sort of pressure or even abuse. It could be "simple things" like requiring flexibility to get a kid to school - the employer can hold it against you "I do so much for you - now do xy for me". Often one does not have the luxury to choose a fair employer.
