It's not really that hard to implement AI as far as I can tell, even if it does produce garbage results. Any CEO that thinks otherwise is getting bamboozled.
Not that I'm defending AI, boilerplate is still boilerplate and a crappier product is a crappier product. But they'll take that trade off anyway which is why heads need to roll, lol
It's the new "promotion machine." The first manager: "I saved this company x dollars using AI, promote me." The new manager: "I increased productivity by x percent getting rid of AI, promote me." Repeat.
C) Write a highly specific, custom-tailored boilerplate generator that does 80% of the work and needs only a day or two to implement.
This sounds just extremely dumb to me, as in "do something manually for 2 minutes or spend 2 days automating it"
Also, DRY in 90% of the cases is a sham
D) spend millions developing an AI to generate the boilerplate generator badly
do it like my companies does and do both. lol
