I think my employer saw the Shopify CEO’s mandatory AI memo and got a little overexcited.

As a web developer I’ve tried copilot and disliked it immensely. It didn’t save me time because my syntax memory and minimal keystroke workflow are pretty decent after 20 years of huckin’ HTML and CSS in various frameworks.

I feel like if I give studies or interviews from companies who FAFOd I’d have a better chance of arguing my point. Does anybody have any in their back pocket they can spare?

Yes, I am very aware of the irony that I could try to ask an AI but avoiding it is kind of the point in this c, isn’t it?

Alternatively, maybe you should try giving different AI systems your standard interview questions and see how they do? I doubt any of them would pass, unless the questions simple. Even if they do as good as a human, using them requires a second human, so they are still using up the same amount of engineering hours as hiring a new employee.
