Does anyone else feel like these AI tools aren't exactly shrinking the workload? In fact, it feels like there's more to do now. But you're expected to produce more and be faster, because these tools are supposed to make work easier. I can't believe I'm making the same amount of money for what seems like double the work.

100% I feel like it’s a bit of a trap- AI can help speed things up but the additional expectations I think is outstripping the gains right now. And worse, I feel like tbh I can use AI better but because of the pressure I don’t actually have time to sit and experiment with them to make it work.

I hate that execs think there’s an AI answer for everything even when honestly some stuff is just not great coming out of AI yet or takes massaging.
Also, dumping 50 pages of AI slop on your team and expecting them to vet/fix it is the opposite of productive.

This is something that I agree with. It helps, but we also need to spend time in checking, reviewing, and generating the prompts.

You’re not alone. Efficiency tools can backfire when they create new learning curves. It sometimes feels like we’ve traded one kind of workload for another.

I don't, but that's not because of the tools. They actually work very well for my purposes. The problem is that my boss knows they make me more effective, which means they're assigning me more work.

I feel like having to learn the AI tools is taking longer than what is being taken off my plate. Nothing seems to be happening any faster around here. I don't feel like anything has been made easier.

I think we’re stuck in the messy middle of transitioning from more manual ways of working to leveraging these tools. What our bosses and companies aren’t accounting for is the learning curve and transition to a new way of working. That sheeeeeeet takes time and when we are stuck between the two worlds it creates more work because we have to learn.

There are a lot of people doing AI just for the sake of AI. It’s helpful to start with a problem and see if there is an AI solution.

Saw my therapist this past Friday and he gave me a useful trick to build better behavior patterns. Whenever you have work to do but would rather nap or something, tell yourself 3 negative effects of the nap and 3 positive effects of doing the work. You might still take the nap, but if you can get in the habit of thinking of it negatively, you'll take less naps when you need to be doing other things.

Doesn't matter what the activities are. Could be working out vs eating more, could be socializing IRL vs wasting time in FB (lol)

Anyone else heard of this/tried it?
