My leadership keep claiming that ai can replace people who know what theyre doing but my first hand experience of those who dont is quite literally monkeys on typewriters. One guys brain is basically plugged into copilot and his strategy is trying completely random things that just break the system over and over until pure random chance might “fix” it but the “solution” ends up being something like chmod 777 all of root
The people with no comprehension of what theyre doing wielding AI are so incredibly dangerous im certain they’ll eventually bring down critical services and cause a crisis lol
One of the reasons i persist in ignoring people telling me not to interact with llms at all is so that i at least somewhat know what I'm doing when I do, but my approach is more to try to break it in weird ways rather than asking it for novel ways to break important IRL systems. Your coworker is a true master at their craft (/s)
I'm honestly surprised they didn't just try to straight up replace my partner with AI instead of this return to office nonsense but I think they might be legally constrained since it's compliance and certification related and not the kind of thing you'd wanna fuck up (but who am i kidding, my partner's fucking doctor was using an LLM, I bet it's why they "forgot" to prescribe omeprazole when they had trouble eating)
