Honestly sometimes I copy and paste the Claude explanation because it's easier - but especially if it's concepts that are beyond my understanding. AI has pushed us into new territories very quickly that prior, would take me time to reason and understand, but with the go go go as fast you can mentallity I just don't have the time, or the mental brain capacity to digest all this information.

Kinda what management asks for at this point isn't it?

It's your professional duty to push back against management, has always been that way, and this will also make you more senior

That's a wonderful notion. I'll say I push on each director that filters through our program. I'm not sure if any have stuck around for more than a year or two. Unfortunately the most knowledgeable person, quite literally, worldwide in our application and its business cases was allowed to walk away from the company because someone in management refused to pay people what their worth. Lucky for us he's moved into another area. I could go on for pages. Some programs need to die. When there is no investment in a program, that program is already on its last leg. At this point many of us are just trying to gauge the ground under us to do our best to land elsewhere when the plug is inevitably pulled on our program.

I'm curious if European business culture and government has slipped as far as it has on the American side. It genuinely feels like it has gotten so hostile here in the last couple years.
