Bro, same. My coworkers aren’t even reviewing the code they push out with it. I had to request changes on a PR that would accidentally cause 700+ extra network calls everytime someone opened a page

our NOC is going to turn into a nightmare, they're using AI to create KBs instead of actually reviewing networks, meaning we have topology maps that are basically just AI hallucinations and less than useless. We'll get a new client and they just trust the AI to import all relavent deta, not paying attention to the fact its referencing a spreadsheet that is 5+ years old (one client the DB they imported was from 2009! didnt even have half their sites on it)

I feel like AI itself isnt the problem, its how they're selling it to businesses, and unfortunately by the time the people who can actually point how how flawed it is, or why it shouldnt be used in X scenario, the company has already invested Millions in the tokens and whatnot, like it would be fine if they actually put any effort into what they're doing with these tools but so many people just go "nah its AI its got it"

dude, im a developer working in ISP, and yes, i could confirm lol

one of the NOC are running the PPPOE commands (copy pasted from GPT) without setting up a sandboxed network to test it properly, and causing a deletion of over 700 customers profile meaning 700 people internet suddenly disconnected

Yep.. Where I work that would be automatic termination. If you did happen to get mega lucky and not get terminated, you better not even sneeze for at least a year after if you want to keep your job. Now with that being said I love my job, it's great, it's a great place to work, but that is absolutely inexcuseable. I took down an NNI once for about 2hrs inadvertently not long after I started... I was told later on it cost the company $20k in SLA funds... Never ever did that again..

Sounds like they don't have a proper test harness setup

Yea, for new PRs AI actually kicks ass cause every PR is coupled with a unit test. But our legacy code is definitely missing things that could have caught this.
