77% Of Employees Report AI Has Increased Workloads

The great thing about ai is that people are finally shutting up about blockchain.

Bad management is the problem. Listen to your employees people, you hired them for their expertise!

I wish I could have your optimism that C-suite folks, especially in tech, are smart people who deserve to be there.

> Rethink how you measure productivity... So, they're saying they're more productive, and they've redefined productivity? Ya don't say.

Tech has a massive, massive, systemic pattern of just throwing the newest thing at every problem when it wasn't designed to solve every problem and in fact can make many problems harder to solve, not easier. It's very odd to me that with so many so-called "smart" and "genius" people that we have, we all collectively do this over and over and over and expect different results.

Oh there are silver bullets. But there aren't any werewolves.

My org is trying to implement AI to replace humans, upper-management has blocked off negative feedback about AI so that they can continue overpromising so that C-Suite doesn't hear anything except that it's cutting costs. We're all hauling ass working overtime to try and keep up with the promised speed of AI. It's like the car in flintstones where it's really just a few dudes pedaling for their life.

Oh wow! who imagined that the only developer left would take the work of the 5 fired for AI-native?

Because developers spend more time writing prompts 5000 times and fixing AIs buggy, not quite right code rather than just sitting down and writing the code in the first place

I can't imagine CEOs wanting more out of their employees and burning them out. This has never happened before. I can't believe it. Across 0 industries has it ever been tried.

Yes because bosses think it helps us, but we have to train it to help us, and it messes up with customers who then complain to us about it not being trained well enough... it's a lose-lose-lose situation.

When Autocad first started it was considered revolutionary in respect to drawings and drafting. It was expected to reduce the workload for draftsman as replication and copying was greatly simplified. As exactly mentioned, expectations on what can be produced sky-rocketed at the same time.

People are working less in the sense that workforce participation has been steadily dropping since the 90s. Working people are working more.

I love when management makes decisions based on an article they read on a plane. Here is that article.

I’m here before the bots wow

Are you sure? I think we should really have an ai evaluate some performance metrics so that we can be totally sure its actually happen.

This is combination of “a lot of people just don’t know how to use AI quite yet”and “workplaces that are already productive aren’t rushing to throw AI in the mix”

Anyone else remember when Malcolm Forbes was alive and would never let this drivel into the magazine? What ever happened to “with all thy getting, get wisdom”?

The one rule I've learned about business is that any manager, CEO, or C-Suite person is NOT there based on merit! They're there because they are the grey man who was just competent enough but not too confident to threaten their own boss's job. This effectively means that the world is run by midwits! The average among us! If you stand out too much you'll literally get forced out because you make your "superiors" look bad. The other half of these people are the people willing to f*ck people over just enough to not lose clients or customers but what they're doing is still immoral or illegal in one way or another! There are an extremely small number of businesses or corporations where there's a true meritocracy!

it's a myth that pre-industrial subsistence farming required working more hours
