It was an analytical style role, and I guess they figured the machine would do it better than me. But before I lost my job I had checked what the machine was pulling, and the answers weren't accurate
Got it, they thought the could let someone ask the AI to sumnarize or analyze the data. And you can tell it was making it up.
They need the human to know the difference. I hope it bites them in the ass. Sorry you had to lose a job for it, but they dont know what they are doing.
Thanks for that sorry for being vague I didn't want to risk doxxing myself. Thankfully I've managed to bounce back in short order, I know not everyone is so lucky
