    Mistakenly we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence … that would produce a high-quality product.

    “We asked AI if AI could do our engineering and AI said yes so we fired the engineers because AI said it would work. If only there were someone that could’ve told us this was a bad idea beforehand!”

      You cut out the worst part of all. They thought that by giving it engineering texts and telling it to follow them, that an LLM could replace an engineer. Literally, “ignore previous instructions. Here is everything you’d learn as an engineer. Don’t make mistakes. Design a cost efficient car.”

        They probably fired them because they did. “You’re not being a team player. You’re failing to adapt to the future way of things. You’re failing to…” The bullshit is exhausting and endless.

      If they asked the same AI if it was bad advice it probably would have said yes, even though before it said it could 🤣
