The force-feeding of AI features on an unwilling public

I’ve observed the opposite—not enough people are leveraging AI, especially in government institutions. Critical time and taxpayer money are wasted on tasks that could be automated with state-of-the-art models. Instead of embracing efficiency, these organizations perpetuate inefficiency at public expense.

The same issue plagues many private companies. I’ve seen employees spend days drafting documents that a free tool like Mistral could generate in seconds, leaving them 30-60 minutes to review and refine. There's a lot of resistance from the public. They're probably thinking that their job will be saved if they refuse to adopt AI tools.

What I have seen is employees spending days asking the model again and again to actually generate the document they need, and then submit it without reviewing it, only for a problem to explode a month later because no one noticed a glaring absurdity in the middle of the AI-polished garbage.

AI is the worst kind of liar: a bullshitter.

You're describing incompetence or laziness—I’ve encountered those kinds of people as well. But I’ve also seen others who are 2-3 times more productive thanks to AI. That said, I’m not suggesting AI should be used for every single task, especially if the output is garbage. If someone blindly relies on AI without adding any real value beyond typing prompts, then they’re not contributing anything meaningful.
