A lot of people at my work, especially managerment, are very pro AI. I've haven't openly shared my opinion of AI/the fact that I don't use it, because the hype around AI seems almost cult like at my work. It was months before anyone brought up hallunications.

Part of me wants to share my reasons against AI at work. Some possible reasons I'm thinking of sharing are cooking the planet, you don't know when it is hallucinating so how do you trust it, critical thinking rot.

Any advice on discussing the negatives of AI at work? Or should I just keep my head down and let sloppers slop?

Sorry for my english, I'm not as good as I wish talking on it.

I'm in a similar scenario. The tech leader of the group I'm working on it is a pro-AI. He use it everyday for all. He didn't search on internet, just ask to various AIs for answers. Today, in a daily, has talk to me not to ask to the development team for questions about compilation errors in their code (I'm a QA engineer) before to ask to an AI. He has finished hes speech with: "Another who use AI will come and do your job sooner".

It's so frustrating....
