I had a friend tell me about how ChatGPT makes his work so much faster. When I asked about it he told me that he works tech support and after the problem is resolved customers often ask for a root cause analysis. He uses ChatGPT to generate a fake but plausible looking analysis and this seems to satisfy the customers, letting him get tickets done faster and play games in the freed time.
Yeah, this is always my skepticism when I say "I get more work done". What about more good work?
We had such a pushback last decade about "bullshit jobs" among the tech sphere, but we seemed to have fallen right into it. At least while the money is flowing to enable it.
