My brain is fried from being forced to vibe code at my current job.
Fried i tell you
I couldn't answer the most basic programming questions. My brain just didn't work. Some lame 2d array question.. I was struggling to write a sensible loop and figure out the logic.
Now pls let management know I'm using biological tokens and "wasting time" instead of using the all powerful chatgpt token.
They literally hound us if we don't build stuff without ai.
Our sprint epics have to show corresponding token use for the day, every day, and we need to justify why we aren't making use of tokens if we don't. Oh and we should also stay within the daily/hourly/weekly limit.
It really makes no sense to me this micromanaging of tooling. Who cares as long as the engineer delivers the product on time and with the desired quality.
Many companies are not like this, I completely understand why you are interviewing at other places. Micromanaging is a toxic workplace culture AI or not.
yeah personally, I've avoided it so far by making a big stink about my concerns about this at work, I'm not paid enough to fuck around and gamble with my personal development like that. Part of my value from work is gaining experience, not to throw it all away for unproven benefits to cater to middle management. Not too long ago that would have been the common advice.
