@fn0rd I hope you find an employer who recognises your awesomeness, and understands what we're all supposed to be doing here.

Positive feedback: literally every member of my team says I'm the best manager they have ever had. I solved multiple long-standing problems the team has been dealing with for years. Team members feel safe to share their struggles, everyone feels empowered, everyone receives valuable feedback.
Negative feedback: I am not enthusiastic enough about AI.
Overall ranking: 3/5.Anyone hiring for a fully remote team lead?
MHS == My hierarchical superior
MHS : are you still resisting?
Me : eerr, yes, no use for it, it is just giving the most likely answer, not the correct one...
MHS: your views are absolutely not alligned with the company
MHS : we do no forcing but *proceed to talk 30 mins about AI*

@fn0rd I know someone who works for a firm who is shoving AI down everyone's throat, he is superb at his job, does not need the ai, but he has to blow a load of coins each month or they will fire him
It is so fustrating hearing things like this -

@fn0rd the part about lowering your grade for not being enthusiastic about AI comes from your team or from somewhere else?

@fn0rd on the off chance you're in Australia or New Zealand (though not South Australia), this role is with a lot of excellent humans, many of whom don't use AI much at all. https://www.ethicaljobs.com.au/members/assemblyfour/engineering-manager-remote-work-from-home?keywords=Assembly%20Four

@mason Sure feels like it. I wonder if there's any company anywhere that's not drinking this cool-aid.
@fn0rd @mason Yeah there are some. It's just that you don't hear about them as much because the "tech evangelists" who amplify voices get more attention when they talk about being all-in on AI.
I suppose I should say, it depends on what exactly you mean by drinking the Kool-Ade. If it means forcing employees to use AI tools whether or not it makes sense, then I'm sure there are a lot of companies not doing that (e.g. I work for one), whether because they're cautious, pragmatic, strapped for cash, or simply don't see the point in changing something they don't need. But if it means allowing any use of AI tools at all, I'm sure there are still some companies meeting that criterion, but they're probably in industries far removed from tech.

@sabik Too easy to verify, I'm afraid. But I *have* been using it for low-value work, mostly anything to do with communicating with my manager :).

@ilookloud From my manager who assigns the ranking.

@pat Appreciate the support, but I'm afraid I'm on the wrong continent for this position
