That’s not what I meant. For work purposes, if you don’t utilize AI compare to people that does, your productivity level will be a lot lower. AI is being embedded in almost everything, then here comes automations as well which is arguably making the gap even wider.
Has AI affected your work?

The term AI sure gets tossed around a LOT. Kinda like Quantum ... as if folks even have the faintest idea what it is.
So all these AI comments - are you referring to using an Agent like Claude, a chatbot like ChatGBT, machine learning as in Alexa like devices and on and on.
Me? I am shutting of Gemini and Co-Pilot whenever they pop up. For some things an agent is fine, to have it in my face all the time is invasive, and not needed. I know how to write how to create a useful database and how to work Excel, so really, fuck off. Further I do not recall ever explicitly giving various software companies the right to use my shit for their training purposes so again, fuck off.
Onto useful at work, I have a guy who is pretty good at coding etc, uses Claude on a lot of the research data looking for patterns etc. Savings are marginal but for a purpose like that its good. If we did not have it, its not a deal breaker.
My biggest concern is security and who is mining my shit for their purposes.

I guess the closest I am to "using" AI is the search feature on Brave browser. It's more like having a conversation, but you need to be pretty specific about your questions. It'll give you the most popular answer based on the info it searches. This can lead to some pretty deep rabbit holes! I usually include "ignore popular" or "what is the most direct way to . . . " in my questions. The results are more concise.
