I’ve found that AI has done literally nothing to improve my life in any way and has really just caused endless frustrations. From the enshitification of journalism to ruining pretty much all tech support and customer service, what is the point of this shit?

I work on the Salesforce platform and now I have their dumbass account managers harassing my team to buy into their stupid AI customer service agents. Really, the only AI highlight that I have seen is the guy that made the tool to spam job applications to combat worthless AI job recruiters and HR tools.

    I’ve never had AI code run straight off the bat - generally because if I’ve resorted to asking an AI, I’ve already spent an hour googling - but it often gives me a starting point to narrow my search.

    There’s been a couple of times it’s been useful outside of coding/config - for example, finding the name of some legal concepts can be fairly hard with traditional search, if you don’t know the surrounding terminology.

    For the most part, it’s worthless garbage.
