I have a boss who tells us weekly that everything we do should start with AI. Researching? Ask ChatGPT first. Writing an email or a document? Get ChatGPT to do it.
They send me documents they “put together” that are clearly ChatGPT generated, with no shame. They tell us that if we aren’t doing these things, our careers will be dead. And their boss is bought in to AI just as much, and so on.
I feel like I am living in a nightmare.
The incompetent coworkers who usually ask me to do things for them (data entry etc) are asking ai first. One of the boomer managers is regularly printing out Google’s AI search result summaries as a basis for research and to write emails for him, which is impressively irresponsible. No top-down expectation to use, which is nice.
