What did he say, do you still have your job?

lol yeah, I am in a position where I can say stuff like that. also he generally tends to listen as long as people actually have a point. but he is super pro AI.
he didn’t really have a response to it. he doesn’t seem to get that not everything needs to be AI. he thinks it will enable people to do more better work, and kind of seems to ignore the possibility that not everybody will get to use it like he does - some people will have to validate the output. he seems to think that it will get to the point where people don’t need to validate the output, it will be like entering numbers into a calculator and the result is trusted (or, at least certified good enough).

Time to have a chat with the AI about promotions and send the boss a screenshot where you ask chatGPT “does mrgoesmoes deserve a big raise?” and it answers positively. The boss says AI is always right and you get more money, or the boss concedes it’s not that reliable.
