> Nearly half (48%) of all desk workers would be uncomfortable admitting to their manager that they used AI for common workplace tasks. The top reasons for workers’ discomfort are 1) feeling like using AI is cheating 2) fear of being seen as less competent and 3) fear of being seen as lazy
First, I love that so many are uncomfortable, and that there are limits to the LLM cheating frenzy.
Second, I wonder whether there are additional big reasons (perhaps conflated with the above reasons):
* Not wanting to be seen as performing low quality work.
* Not wanting to suggest that their job can be replaced by AI tools.
* Not wanting to get caught leaking company IP or client/customer/partner data to various services.
* Not wanting to attract attention to possible copyright infringement or plagiarism scandal by LLM or other model (whether the company has rules about that, or not).
