MODERATORS
My hypothesis is that the least competent people use AI the most, and it's a big multiplier on their incompetence.
Initial studies have found that AI generally helps either the top performers or the bottom performers of a job/profession. If it helps the top the most, it usually means that the person has to know enough on how to use the AI tools and correct known issues. If it helps the bottom the most, switch fields since it is likely that the AI is going to push your role into whomever is cheapest.
This isn't about who it helps though, this is strictly about usage.
Yes, this article isn't. I'm talking about another study.
Also the ones whose bosses give them incentives (or direct ordered).
I do not think you’re wrong.
This is why government LOVES AI.
