Best way to sabotage AI at work? (hexbear.net)

At work we will soon be getting access to agentic AI that parses through our gigantic code base and burns through money for very simple requests.

What would be the best way to maliciously comply with the management's decision for AI usage to be an everyday thing you are expected to do without getting found out?

My idea is spamming the living shit out of the most expensive models for pointless tasks and then insisting that the result is wrong, and work in the meantime. Nobody can complain if my work is still good, but they will notice that the AI budget is not worth it and stop the hype train.

Insist that it reads full files, max difficulty. Tell it to spawn 6 subagents in different worktrees every time you need to do something. Ez token maxxing. I can burn through my entire 5 hour budget in one request.
