What have your or their manager said about this? About any or all of (a) slowing everyone else down with crap, (b) wasting company resources on generating crap, (c) not doing anything that a CI integration couldn't trigger the AI to do itself?

This is my personal experience: I've seen multiple emails from management about handling AI properly - it hasn't improved the situation. Those people don't hear and my org still sort-of says to people to use as much AI as possible (though they've limited which models we can use, and slashed token spending).

And with hiring effectively frozen there is not even an incentive to let go of those people because they will not be replaced - they may have contributed little overall (routine tasks, oncall weeks) and now contribute 10x more spam while before they would not even try to investigate an issue, but we don't have the cycles to allocate that to someone else. And every time you tell them something they try to gaslight you by telling you they're trying to learn and you're being too aggressive.

I've become so frustrated by seeing claude-isms in slack or in emails it has become impossible for me to use it to work on my personal projects and I'm moving over to codex. Maybe it's time to try pi and some chinese models, definitely I need a break from this madness.
