‘It almost doubled our workload’: AI is supposed to make jobs easier. These workers disagree::A new crop of artificial intelligence tools carries the promise of streamlining tasks, improving efficiency and boosting productivity in the workplace. But that hasn’t been Neil Clarke’s experience so far.
All of these tools need their hand held. So anything they generate or do still needs to be checked by humans that have their own separate workload to worry about.
Just had a Marketing colleague try to make the case for a SaaS solution telling us the justification was clearly articulated in our company-specific deck he created
Reading the deck and then checking the revision history, it’s clear that buddy just pasted in the vendor’s brochure ware
Some parts of the business have no place in actually selecting tech
Agreed. Most of the devs I’ve seen at work that use it aren’t checking anything, and as a result their code is even more garbage than normal.
I use GitHub Copilot and will bounce code questions off of ChatGPT, but I never copy/paste. I’ll iterate through small bits and usually have an idea of approach before asking it anything.
Yeah, it only enhances productivity when you either have the time to check it or you have it generate something you can visually check as it is generated. I sometimes have it generate code for me when I’m working with known/studied libraries.
