One of the KPIs of my job is how well I integrate AI into my team. My boss automatically gets my AI usage from reports on the admin centre of our M365 instance. I was asked last week why I had 2 days of zero Copilot queries. I had to type up an explanation lest this gets recorded as me being non compliant.
Thinking I will need to build an agent that does some tangentially related questioning daily so that I don't get written up or cross examined again.
I'm hoping we hit "peak stupid" with these nonsense metrics soon, but the C-suite MBAs who get all their AI-related information solely from vendor demos, Sam Altman and Elon Musk keep surprising me.
We will hit peak stupid. I'm just wondering how many more years it will take for it.
Did you use AI to come up with the explanation?
No but I definitely should have haha. Would have improved my metrics.
Would they even be able to tell if you just submitted every prompt twice, and thus doubled your usage?
Technically ya. Every single query any member of your M365 tenant has asked can be accessed through the admin section and Purview. But fortunately the higher up in rank you go, the less ability to understand computers.
Mmm. Ok.
Well, I've rarely heard a better use case for AI than to confound AI surveillance.
It could keep an eye on your current count and contribute extra 'work' if you are lagging.
My team has been asked like 4 times this year by other teams management if we could leverage copilot to do more or less that. Check the amount of windows they have open, check if their KPIs are being met based on their work, check if people are idle or are opening up non work tabs, etc.
It's a chat bot it can't even understand the words you type in. Nobody seems to understand that "AI" is just a chat bot.
