He said AI is helping workers produce more output, but the quality of it is so bad that their colleagues have to spend more time fixing it

    I interviewed there last year. I was penalized for not using enough AI in my interview. I used it, just not enough of it.

    They told me it was a company wide mandate. That I should be ready to not write any code but to use AI for everything.

    So, whose fault is it?

      Fault? I’d say you dodged a bullet by not getting that job.

    So the thing that everybody with a functioning brain said would happen, happened.

    Slop grande! That’s a wonderful expression. I’ve been on the receiving end of one quite recently, and I think I’ll start using that word from now on.

    So, how is that pivot to “AI” working out for you, Shopify?

      Does accuracy by volume work in coding?
