DARE promised me free drugs. What a letdown.
And sexy felines.
You lied to me!
I’m a software developer and those who use AI are slower than me lmao
This is so accurate. And, I had “friends” back in high school, who were very much into meth and very much into sharing.
But every single big meeting at work, is just about AI. it’s just a sales pitch, nothing specific. One of the senior managers emails multiple times a week about fake “wins” due to AI. How, because of AI, some random API is now 4x better! (He doesn’t know what API is…) When I teams opens up, it’s just “AI Bootcamps” plastered everywhere. The intranet homepage, 3 of the 5 things on the carousel is just AI. Multiple “demo days” have just been people showing how they’ve been fucking around in AI and not doing work.
Someone in mgmt, has made it a goal for more AI usage. Put teams on blast who weren’t “using it enough”. Fake metrics of how much good code it’s generated (with no actual examples of course). And yeah, now they’re tracking usage to ensure we get enough AI “touches” a month. They’re monitoring our badge-in (due to RTO) and now they’re monitoring AI adoption and usage.
But just ignore the massive outsourcing to India/SEA… no need to worry about that.
It’s funny how this could be my post and we very likely don’t work at the same company.
Its funny that there is even a physiology diagnosis for being addicted to AI. Just because you can profit from AI in shady ways doesn’t make you not a fraudster. Didn’t 60 minutes have a segment about China kids profiting from it? How is that not child labor.
I get paid to encourage people to use it at work. I’m a problem, creating more problems to solve my own problems.
1980s: Please do not use drugs. They seem great at first but you don’t want to get hooked.
2020s: Please DO use the AIs. They seem like shit at first, but you DO want to get hooked because we have about a trillion dollars in new mortgages to keep up with.
I use it at my corporate job to do most of my job now. I still get paid the same regardless if i try harder (without any rewards) or submit to burnout and let the standards slip. Fuck em.
Reminds me of some funny old posts on r/sysadmin of greybeards who had essentially automated their entire jobs and life in perl lol.
Best one was a script that would auto text message his wife he would be coming home late if he still had an active terminal session.
There was a recent post around here or reddit that was about management trying to gauge performance via AI use, and how they had caught on to the token spending tricks people were using, but honestly it doesn’t seem that hard to fake around it if it ever came up.
Just throw some agent work at it like codex and watch it burn tokens running grep lol.
Yea because they are literally threatening to make you homeless and die or use this pedophile AI mass surveillance bull shit that will literally kill all life on earth
This stuff is expressly forbidden in my workplace.
Really intrusive to take the AI pee-test every six months. But that’s what it takes to maintain my security clearance, do whatchagonnado
Are you hiring?
Are you experienced?
To some degree, yes
Find us the value for our stockholders, slaves!
I feel about the same amount of pressure honestly, which is to say none.
Both times I’m making choices based on my own observations, the difference being that I wanted to do some drugs because they seemed mostly harmless and fun (they were) and I don’t use any ai stuff because it seems completely useless to me (it is).
but why, it’s so great!?

You should be immune based on all the peer pressure videos you watched then.
