Surprisingly reasonable?
I was terrified that entering the corporate world would mean being surrounded by people who are obssessed with AI.
Instead like... The higher-ups seem to be bullish on it and how much money it'll make them (... And I don't mind because we get bonuses if the corp does well), but even they talk about how "if you just let AI do the job for you, you'll turn in bad quality work" and "AI just gets you started, don't rely on it"
We use some machine learning stuff in places, and we have a local chatbot model for searching through internal regulations. I've used Copilot to get some raw ideas which I cooked up into something decent later.
It's been a'ight.
This is the way. I honestly don't care how the execs think about ai or if they use it themselves, but don't force its usage on me. I've been touching computers since before some of them were born. For me it's just one extra tool that gets pulled out in very specific scenarios and used for a very short amount of time.
It's like the electric start on my snowblower - you don't technically need it, and it won't do the work for you, (so don't expect it to) but at the right time it can be extremely nice to have.
