My manager takes my work (which takes hours), feeds it to AI, and tells me to match the AI's output. Except the AI version makes zero sense for the actual project. I'm so annoyed and checked out that I'm skipping crucial steps in my workflow, making things worse. I used to love this work, but now I’m losing all passion. Has anyone dealt with a boss like this, or is it time for me to quit?

Stop training the AI. And look for a different job.

Don't quit, unless you know you'll find another job soon enough or unless you have plenty of $ and zero debt. Just keep records for.each project and how they are assigned to you etc.

That sounds miserable, but I’d have a conversation with him stating exactly what you said above before doing anything else

Overzealous cost cutters, for AI it can be pretty easy to refuse though for engineering. So much liability and potential for delays if there isn’t enough oversight
