I can’t tell if this is serious. If that’s really how we react to someone who admits AI use although they know why AI is bad, we need to listen to Dr. Fatima some more.

“I use AI sparingly for” is the new “I only do meth before my hookups for unprotected sex with strangers”.

> I use AI sparingly to make sure the company-paid subscription is a net loss for the AI vendor. Hey, it could happen. Overall, I think it was a bit cookie cutter for an article of this type, but maybe It's just the preaching to the choir effect. Even the fact that he ostensibly quit his job over this stuff doesn't hit as hard as it should, it comes off as if he could have done so at any time but this way he gets to grandstand about it. Also stuff like this: > It wasn’t a bad job, not by most metrics. It ticked the boxes a job is supposed to tick: good pay. Health insurance. Remote work. Time off. Nice coworkers. sounds like it should be in a *how do you do, fellow workers* copypasta.
