It’s so bizarre working in software development for a non-tech company.
Management is like “can you use it to automate X?” And my answer is almost always “No. It will do an unreliable job of that. But if you want X automated just TELL me that’s what you want and I can seriously automate it for you in a day or two by just writing a tool”
Nope.
It blows my mind how much Management doesn’t give two fucking shits about the RESULT. They ONLY want to be able to tell shareholders that something was accomplished USING AI.
Oh, and for what it’s worth… since I’ve been at this company, I’ve had the same question asked of:
The Blockchain
The Metaverse
Getting questions which are solutions in search of a problem has been a harbinger of a hype train heading for a derailment

I feel you. Can’t wait for AI to go the way of the blockchain :)
