    I thought it was a joke until someone at my company gave a company wide presentation on how to use AI to accelerate coding and st several points flat out ADMITTED he didn’t know what the hell it was doing but you just need to ‘baby sit’ it and you get useful scripts out of it. I’m a hardware engineer and I wanted to scream at him.

      It’s not just for coding either. Yesterday, my senior director used Google’s AI to ask about the architecture to integrate one of our vendor products with our ERP system (usually my job). Fortunately the AI did me a solid and said “This is a highly complex integration 🤯”.

      Yeah… No shit, that’s why so many of us are employed. Shit’s complicated.
