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.

You have double manager? Do you actually report to both of them?

I've worked there for years now and I'm still unclear on the hierarchy. I think they're both the same level of authority but I honestly could be wrong, the organisation is an absolute mess.

You can tell when you work for a big multinational because it's never clear who's in charge. If you know what's going on you're not working for an important enough organisation.

So to be clear I "report" to the manager that I actually like. What I'm supposed to be doing I have no idea about. Given that I've never actually got in trouble for withholding information I assume that the other guy isn't my direct line manager. But it really is all up in the air.
