nixCraft 🐧AI psychosis among the C-suite is really high now. I’m seeing it at work, where they validate everything using AI even though they know it screws up. For example, if I tell them a reboot isn't needed for a CVE because we aren’t running the app directly on the server, its in Docker, they will immediately fact check me with AI right while we talking. It’s just 1 example, but I’ve never seen such bizarre behavior. They treat AI like some divine truth. Has anyone noticed this?

I have quite similar experiences at my company. Here’s my take on it.
LLMs perform quite well on simple tasks such as vibe coding basic stuff (web page, scripts, small programs...), writing text or summarizing the information from the Internet.
However they fall short when it comes to more complex engineering problems that require combining skills and experience across different fields.
I fear that most managers cope only with the first category. As a result, they fail to see the limitations of LLMs and believe they can solve any situation.
