The comments in the piece about how dystopian it feels to be ordered to use AI to automate yourself out of a job - this resonates.

As a project manager I'm organizing work so that typical PM reporting activities and governance can be automated.

I work closely with a data analytics team - they have to perform their work with the spectre of imminent replacement over their heads.

It makes me wonder, as a worker, is it more rational to embrace the AI tools and hope for the best, or is it better to reject the 'progress' and do everything you can to subtly subvert the encroaching AI workflow automations?
