Being an analyst I need to research about the market and work accordingly. With the help of ChatGPT, perplexity and Gemini, I get done 70% of my research work. The rest of the 30% is just pure brainstorming. Then if I need some graphics then I use Canva for designing them. I get the images from them. Sometimes, I create ppts too using it. If I need any videos then i usually use tool like fliki, Lunabloom Ai or invideo to generate video. These tools give me good quality AI generated videos. Then nowadays, AI is also available on social medias. It makes the job easier for me. So basically, Most of my work is completed by AI. The one thing I need to do properly is to give them proper instructions. How do you go about it?

So your work can be automated by AI. Don't tell your boss or you are fired

OP listed N tools they stitch together in a creative and thoughtful way (“30% brainstorming”) which happen to leverage AI.

What’s the fireable offense? Does the boss want to stitch those tools together themselves?

If the output is crap- regardless of the tool- that’s a different story, and one we don’t have enough info to evaluate.

There has to be no offence, its cost reduction for the company.

It depends how mission critical his brainstorming is for the company. LLMs can brainstorm too.

My latest take is: AI amplifies human intent. For now at least, it very much needs someone with vision to guide and leverage it, and this can easily be a full time job.

That means OP’s job may be _safer_, because they are getting higher leverage on their time.

It’s their colleague who’s ignoring AI that I see as higher risk.
