It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our tech columnist
None of “your work” is yours in any meaningful way the second you use a tool that cannot exist without plagiarism therefore any aspect of its contribution immediately forfeits all ownership of the ideas conveyed. Because they’re not yours, they’re stolen by an inherently plagiaristic tool. Unless you’re using a local model trained exclusively on your own writing, none of your AI powered work is in any way yours. Even then it still wouldn’t be original or created by you, it would be algorithmic nonsense. You are not a writer if you use an LLM to do the actual writing. Couldn’t even write that fuckin response without your gpt slop.
