The tricky bit is politely conveying this to people that lets call it don't think about things too deeply.

They genuinely think they're helping by shoveling 5 pages of LLM output they didn't even bother reading into teams...

But if some people lack the understanding ability to even realise that they lack understanding, how do you tell them?

Nightmare.

  • You don't. Pretty sure the last instance where this happened the other person thought I was just anti-AI when I voiced my displeasure. I don't think the actual problem registered

    How others in office context attempt to use it is starting to annoy in general. Had a case today where someone wanted to use copilot to classify something that is situation/company specific & out of distribution. There is just no understanding beyond "its a magic answer box"

  • You need to tell them in high school, before their brains finish developing.

    If you don't instill critical thinking into people by the age of 17-19 at the LATEST, it's already too late after. College is already too late.

    You just slowly mitigate them at work, relegate them to strictly defined tasks. Some will need to be managed out.
