The more recent report says corporate AI adoption has found several issues with AI, with human workers turning to automating dreary and mundane tasks they don't like doing, rather than valuable or meaningful work.

First of all, no shit. Second of all, wasn't that the point?

    lol right, like that's literally supposed to be the whole goal, but of course companies never wanted to make their workers lives better, they wanted to replace them wholesale

    That’s literally its intended use case. It’s supposed to do the tedious grunt work so employees actually have time/inspiration to work on more innovate and important work.

    Did managers expect the meatware to stick to repetitive slog work while unsupervised robots, trained on Reddit and Pornhub comments, deliver them new products and profits from thin air?
