Pro tip: When they promise AI will speed things up, expect the opposite
My boss announced an AI tool to automate our invoice processing six months ago. We were told it would be ready in weeks, saving us all time. Here we are, still waiting for it to actually work without constant tweaks. Every update just adds more bugs, pushing our deadlines back further. I've spent more hours babysitting this thing than I ever did doing the work manually. Now there's talk of cutting our team size because the AI is supposed to handle it. But it's barely functional, so we're stuck in limbo. If companies rush this stuff, we'll all be out of jobs before the tech even catches up.
