How stupid do you have to be to believe that only 8% of companies have seen failed AI projects? We can’t manage this consistently with CRUD apps and people think that this number isn’t laughable? Some companies have seen benefits during the LLM craze, but not 92% of them. 34% of companies report that generative AI specifically has been assisting with strategic decision making? What the actual fuck are you talking about?

I don’t believe you. No one with a brain believes you, and if your board believes what you just wrote on the survey then they should fire you.

I know AI can’t replace me. But my boss’s boss’s boss doesn’t know that.

Fortunately, it’s my job as your boss to convince my boss and boss’ boss that AI can’t replace you.

We had a candidate spectacularly fail an interview when they used AI and didn’t catch the incredibly obvious errors it made. I keep a few examples of that handy to defend my peeps in case my boss or boss’s boss decide AI is the way to go.

I hope your actual boss would do that for you.

My boss is a non-technical manager.

I’m so sorry.

My boss asked if I wanted to be a manager, and I said no, but I’ll take the position if offered so it doesn’t go to a non-technical person. I wish that was more common elsewhere.

Good luck sir or madame.

They’ll replace you first, so they can replace your employees… even though you are clearly right.

Yup. But at least I tried, and I’ll have some decent stories for the soup kitchen.
