Andy Bell had heard companies were forcing employees to use AI tools so spoke to developers to determine if that was the case and learned some horrors in the process.

As with any software we use to get work done, LLMs are a tool. And as with any tool, we need to be using them correctly and intentionally.

I spent the last month trying to develop my thinking on what correct looks like, but based on the quotes in this article, a lot of people aren’t bothering to do that in their firms.
