Cognitive Offloading to AI


I ask questions to co workers about a system or why they do something or their opinion. Some of them return a very clearly AI response, sometimes completely missing the point. What’s the point? If I wanted an AI response I’d have asked it myself.

This bothers me a bit because if I can expect this kind of response, what does that say about the thought they put into their work, even if they’re using AI for everything coding related?

The point is as always: to get the work "done" faster.

Such people are generally not bright enough to see the difference, so certainly not bright enough to realise you can.
