Probably just lying to their boss. I have an AI obsessed boss and regularly lie about how much I use it because productivity is actually measured entirely by their perception of you and not by any real metric.
I’ve tried explaining this to me peers that just quietly bust their asses while noisy jerks (including me, but to a lesser extent than most) get perceived as high performers because they engage with their bosses and work on things that have high visibility.
I thought about lying on my last report but decided to not. At this point they’re going to have to fire me if they can’t accept the truth. I’m not lying to save my skin.
And their bosses are just lying to their bosses, and it’s lying and yessing all up and down the line, and the rest of us out here just have to live with whatever The Machine pukes out for us.
Truth no longer matters to these clowns. Who cares about it’s true? Who cares that Spotify is already good… And the one thing they can do to is make it worse?
There is zero chance this is true.

If I was working foe spotify I would honestly lie just to do something better than ask an AI to do bullshit for me

I’m not so sure. I could believe their entire productivity has been consumed by failing AI slop in code reviews.
