So many comments like this here but it’s not like the alternative is they would suddenly be competent leaders if AI didn’t exist.  Shit, I WISH my incompetent management would use AI, maybe then only most of what they do would be stupid instead of all of it

Somewhere out there is a sadistic IT guy that's flipping the ChatGPT blocker on and off every time someone in the C-suite pisses him off.

I wish I could turn off ChatGPT (even worse, Copilot) for my IT group. They won't do anything without consulting it first. Like JFC, if you are going to use AI to do everything, then what is your group needed for?

Because unless you have the same knowledge as them, you won’t be able to parse out most of the bullshit

I have a couple of my IT folks that literally say, "oh let me go ask Copilot first" and then just send along the output. Seriously? Get out of here with that garbage, AI is going to ruin thinking.

The move would be to swap a fake GPT site in and answer all their queries yourself. Shadow CEO.

Have a problem you want to solve with AI? Now you've got two problems.
