Yes.

Saying “ChatGPT told me …” is a fast track to getting your input dismissed on our team. That phrasing shifts accountability from you to the AI. If we really wanted advice straight from the model, we wouldn’t need a human in the loop - we’d ask it ourselves.

We use AI heavily in our product and development flow. Sometimes we'd encounter a problem none of us can figure out at the moment so some of us would use ChatGPT to brainstorm some solutions. We'd present the solutions, poke holes into them, and go forward from there. Sometimes we don't use the actual ideas from GPT but ideas that were inspired by the generated ideas.

The intent isn't to shift accountability, it's to brainstorm. A shitty idea gets shot down quickly, whereas a good idea gets implemented.
