My work thinks theyre being forward thinking by shoving ai into everything. Not that we are forced to use it but we are encouraged to. Outside of using it to convert a screenshot to text (not even ai…thats just ocr) I haven’t had much use for it since it’s wrong a lot. Its pretty useless for the type of one off work I do as well. We are supposed to share any “wins” we’ve had but I’d sooner they stop paying a huge subscription to Sammy A.
My boss got us a ChatGPT corporate workspace or something? They gave me access to which I promptly “forgot” (read: intentionally did not use). Then the other day, I asked my boss for help with a tricky piece of coding and they screenshared while they showed themselves directly typing my question into ChatGPT and sending me its answer…
I tried using it once for a different piece of tricky coding. I tried arguing with it, having to tell it multiple times that it was making the same error over and over with each new “totally corrected” answer it gave me. I gave up after an hour without any new steps in a correct direction.
