Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

I use copilot in teams once or twice a week to help reword small things or ask about functions in excel. Stuff I would have googled in the past. Mostly because I suspect there to be some tracking about "AI Adoption" at some point and I might as well get ahead of that. The net improvement over just googling is essentially zero.

The more you use AI the more you realize that you need to start with some intelligence to which the AI machine can pivot its inference off of. From what I have seen most of the intelligence has left this bank -- either by layoff, leaving or termination. The managers that are left will look for yet another excuse to get rid of it.

AI has actually been really helpful for me as a therapy tool especially with everything going on here lately.

All I have is CoPilot in Teams. It’s useless.

AI helped me spend hours trying to get copilot to massage some data on a spreadsheet and create a pivot table and chart via avba script. Doing it myself took about 20 minutes but the bank wants it automated to be more efficient.

I've been working with AI quite a bit recently and while it's a great tool, it's just that. A human is still required. This push by management to use AI as a staff replacement is short-sighted, but no one expects more from this management team.

My company brags that we're AI-enabled, but the truth is, we don't have it. They just had to jump on the bandwagon. Nothing we do has been improved by tinkering with AI.

AI basically means All Indians, anyway.

@OP AI has only helped me on my year end review and to spruce up my resume to get out of this place.

AI will replace workers. Ask McD employees after you enter your order at the kiosk if you can find one to flag down

AI isn't going to do anything but reduce jobs.

Every company has access to the same AI tools and there will be no competitive advantage. We'll have to use it just to stay relevant.
