I think my employer saw the Shopify CEO’s mandatory AI memo and got a little overexcited.

As a web developer I’ve tried copilot and disliked it immensely. It didn’t save me time because my syntax memory and minimal keystroke workflow are pretty decent after 20 years of huckin’ HTML and CSS in various frameworks.

I feel like if I give studies or interviews from companies who FAFOd I’d have a better chance of arguing my point. Does anybody have any in their back pocket they can spare?

Yes, I am very aware of the irony that I could try to ask an AI but avoiding it is kind of the point in this c, isn’t it?

Research says otherwise, but hey, what do they know? They looked up information instead of asking an AI. Obviously they did less thinking!

🤣

They do not say that. But you stay in your triggered whine mode forever if you want to. Looking x up in a book vs asking a search is extremely costly and not at all what they researched.

Yes, actually, they do. It took me literally SECONDS to find this:

And that wasn't even the one I was looking for. The one I was looking for I found about a minute later:

I guess you should have asked ChatGPT to find that for you.

Seems like none of these refer to information lookup services but to generative ai
