We had a product manager that made requirements based mostly on ChatGPT.
It would output completely nonsensical stuff like QR-Code formats that don't exist, or asking to connect to hallucinated APIs.
It was often caught by lead devs quite quickly: the documentation wasn't a link or a PDF but rather some block of text.
But in the cases it wasn't, it was super costly: some developer would spend hours trying to make the API work to no avail, or, in the case of the QR code, it would reach QA which would be puzzled about how to test it.
So yes there is a new type of asshole.
