What is the AI vibe at work like for you? (lemmy.ml)

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.

I'm in software. The company gives us access and broadly states they'd like people to find uses for it, but no mandates. People on my team occasionally find uses for it, but we understand what it is, what it can do, and what it would need to be able to do for it to be useful. And usually it's not.

If I thought anyone sent me an email written with AI, I would ask them politely but firmly to never waste my time like that again. I find using AI for writing email to be highly disrespectful. If I worked at a company making a habit out of that, I would leave.
