  • At one of my previous jobs it was the head of HR stealing people’s food. Every time somebody complained he’d put up a sign and start “investigating”, but nothing ever came of it despite having cameras pointed at the fridge. Eventually someone got tired of it, put up their own camera, and caught the head of HR on camera a couple times. Apparently the president of the company didn’t care and brushed it off. I only found out because the guy with evidence blanket emailed the videos to the whole company. Of course he got written up for doing that.








  • I wouldn’t be so opposed to it if this was the case with Copilot, but at my job it never “fails”. It never says, “I don’t have enough data on that,” or, “You should contact an appropriate resource.” It always has an answer that is very confidently portrayed.

    Now I’m flooded with tickets from users saying, “I followed Copilot’s instructions and this still didn’t work,” with screenshots of Copilot where they asked it how to do something that is impossible with our software. Then I have to argue with them about it because they believe the LLM over IT. Or users asking for permission to see a button/link that doesn’t exist because the last 50% of the steps are pure hallucinations.
