I tell people who work under me to scrutinize it like it’s a Google search result chosen for them using the old I’m Feeling Lucky button.
Just yesterday I was having trouble enrolling a new agent in my elk stack. It wanted me to obliterate a config and replace it with something else. Literally would have broken everything.
It’s like copying and pasting stack overflow into prod.

AI is useful. It is not trustworthy.
Sounds more actively harmful than useful to me.
When it works it can save time automating annoying tasks.
The problem is “when it works”. It’s like having to do code reviews mid work every time the dumb machine does something.
So it causes more harm or loss than benefit. So it’s not useful.
“When it works” it creates the need for oversight because “when it doesn’t work” it creates massive liabilities.
I’m not disagreeing lol.
I bring it up to explain why losers are obsessed with it.
