It's easy to point to some folks as Luddites or perhaps misguided self-preservation, but I think there's also another angle to this: unless orgs change policy, workers are still going to take the blame when mistakes happen (and they happen all the time). For some types of work, the workers end up doing the original work plus extra work (think verifying document quality in fields like clinical trials).

there is really an arbitage oppportunity now with ai. you can just throw a task to ai and do some minor edits afterwards, and claim that you do it mannually. can significantly inflate your perceived capacity lol. works for bosses that are not that ai-savvy
