Survey at work asks what AI tools one might be using and how much time I am saving per week.

@tsturm "how much time you are saving a week".
that survey tells you more about the people that set it, than the results will tell them.
@fishidwardrobe "Please tell us that we didn't make a horrible mistake!"

AI tools I use: Intellisense, compiler warnings
Time saved per week: 0.25 hours with Intellisense, 0.75 with compiler warnings
@wakame Yep. Same.

@happyturtlethings I'm not doing it until they literally tell me they'll fire me otherwise. And then I will use AI in the most ridiculous way possible, because fuck all of this.
@tsturm 10/10 approach. it's not even a hill to die on, just a hill from which to watch the trainwrecks.

It’s like in a sci-fi movie, when a crew member realizes they are the only one left that is not infected by the zombie plague.
I have been getting random push surveys from various companies with the same deficit.

@tsturm Yup, some people I know just had an AI course at work where they were asked to describe how it improves their work & there was no option to say "not at all"... It's insane, no business worth the tiniest amount of salt should act like this for anything.

Stockholders only ask for the answers they want to hear.

@tsturm
I've seen similar:
How much time does AI save you per week?
- 0-5 hours
- 5-10 hours
- 10+ hoursNo option for "AI actually slows me down because I have to spend more time dealing with everyone else's slop, and CI servers are backed up with the extra workloads."

@n1xnx @tsturm I've been completely open at work (where there's also a strong pro-AI policy
They pay me for the results I'm supposed to produce & AI isn't helping me do that, so if they make me use AI they take time away from my result-producing work, making me less valuable as an employee, while still paying my fairly generous hourly rate. So far it has kept management from insisting...

@tsturm Brought up and guided by an ethical statistician, this leads me to think that either
- the survey was written by complete amateurs who should not be given access to a spreadsheet
- the survey was written by people who wanted a specific result and should not be trusted as any « finding » is tainted by leading/forced questions -

@tsturm I noticed a few years ago that a contractor was sounding very strange in email conversations. Overy optimistic and extremely explainable for being a supposedly very buzy company. It was a very creepy way of talking for a swedish contractor so we didn't do much business with that company. I didn't realize it at the time but later I knew why I was having such a strange feeling.
Later when looking back at the mails I'm 100% sure it was AI written. Because it said ChatGPT in hidden places.
So far my employer hasn’t been too terrible about requiring generative “AI” for work tasks, but I see so many internal announcements that are very suspect.
In particular, I see far too many messages that begin with “[thing] is not an X — it’s a Y”, or a trivial variant of that form, and they’re clearly either gen-“AI” output or people writing like gen-“AI” output because they think that’s how you should write. I cringe inwardly each time I see one.
