Ridiculous workplace AI stories
I'm curious to hear some of the most "this shit is getting out of hand" stories surrounding AI being heavily incorporated at a workplace.
For example, I recently started working at a small company, where the CEO turned out to be an AI fanatic. Every email, pricing strategy, document creation, audit prep HAS to be done with AI. However, the cherry on top was when they accidentally attached in an email an extended screenshot of their personal AI chatbot where the conversations showed a history of "how to deny my employee a raise", "stubborn employee misunderstanding", "how to handle an employee resigning". Needless to say it's obvious every email we receive is copied from those conversations, it was just both funny and tragic to see it confirmed due to a slip up. Naturally, the job hunt continues after that fiasco.
Would love to hear how common this is.
