I really hate all of these executives trying to shove AI our throats.

Instead of rewarding our efficiency using AI with maybe a 3-4 day work week, they’ll just lay us off instead
They're doing to to eventually replace you or your colleague with said AI
Yeah the shoving is stupid. They are trying to accelerate it because there is so much FUD around LLM code generation slowing down adoption. All the biggest model shops (MS/DS/Anthropic) are at an extreme advantage right now. Internal use would be scheduled ahead of paying customers if I was in charge of it.
Why?
Imagine your company announced a new initiative where everybody's job would become "manager".

Would you do to work for a company where every single person including yourself was a manager?

This idea is silly because it asserts that we can replace work with management. But management is just more work, so we can just replace it with more management, and I think if you follow the logic to its outcome no work needs to be done by anyone anymore ever

... Because of the shoving
