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.
We have a company-wide SMART goal to “utilize AI in our daily work”. Not sure how that can be proven, but whatevs. GitHub Copilot cost me an hour just yesterday, where it put in a semicolon that doesn’t belong and was very tough to track down. It’s nice when it works, but it will cost you lots of time when it doesn’t. I guess I fulfilled my SMART goal?
