| Have you considered talking about it? You're in a professional environment collectively working in a new way with a group of people. It's up to somebody to have opinions about what does and doesn't suck. If you silently go along and don't say anything you're dooming yourself and all of us to a lifetime of this garbage. |

| ▲ | swat535 a few seconds ago | parent | next [-] | | You're going to have convince upper management why the team's velocity is suddenly affected in feature releases once they stop using PR. All the execs know that they can refresh the screen faster and see the features for marketing and sales. When has engineering ever had a voice anyway? The bean counters have been looking to cut us out since the inception of our industry. | |

Best just to learn how to interpret AI generated shit, or learn how to run it through AI and have it translate it to a more concise format without all the buzzwords. It'll take getting used to, but it'll save your career. | |
| ▲ | VohuMana 41 minutes ago | parent | prev [-] | | I think the biggest issue might not be the immediate team but upper leadership. Companies which have mandated AI usage override a lot of what an individual or individual team wants. If that’s the case then it would be a lot like fighting the ocean, especially if your immediate team sees having AI write docs as an easy way to move the needle on LT’s AI monitoring dashboard. |

| Yes, talking about it repeatedly has been my process. Individual PRs have been changed but the 4 the next day look the same. The typical response is that they did change the (massive and wordy) PR overview from what AI said, even if it was obviously a minimal change at best. I can’t really argue against lying and going through and picking out every LLMism is not so productive in my opinion. I don’t have time to go through and flag everything or even read the thousands of lines of code changes that are happening. |
