Management is forcing us to use AI
I’m paraphrasing; «You use AI or you’re not working here. So why should you be allowed to code without AI. You either use it or you start looking for a different job.»Can’t believe Im being forced to make myself dumber.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
I’m paraphrasing; «You use AI or you’re not working here. Humans are not perfect coders nor are AIs. So why should you be allowed to code without AI. It’s a netloss for us. You either use it or you start looking for a different job.»Can’t believe Im being forced to make myself dumber. I really dont want to spend even more hours in front of my laptop, but looks like I have to because this whole industry is now dependent on AI.This is the US.
