Our IT department and leadership are more schizophrenic than usual around AI. Top leadership wants it bad, pushing big initiatives. Risk management layer, predictably, is more cautious - requiring analysis and approvals and so forth - this is driven into IT with things like redirects from open internet AI services to internally hosted alternatives (sensible), but the internal services aren't completely up-to-speed with tools like Cursor. So, I have approval for Cursor, and IT is helping me make it work around their filters, but then again - once in a while the Cursor software magically uninstalls itself overnight. Luckily, the work in progress is still there and when I re-install Cursor it picks up where it left off.

We clearly have conflicting interests at work behind our company computers.
