"The point of delegating is I can trust you to do the job with the instructions given" Which is weird because AI doesn't meet that requirement.

"The point of delegating is I can trust you to do the job with the instructions given"
Which is weird because AI doesn't meet that requirement.
- bluGill 5mo agoNo human is perfect for that either. However some are more trustworthy than others. I need to watch AI closer, but no closer than any other junior engineer. And AI doesn't get lazy trying to trace down complex code so sometimes it is worth it.
- cratermoon 5mo agoI'm not sure I understand how "I need to watch AI closer" squares with "If I need more detailed instructions that lowers the value of delegation - eventually I can do the job myself faster.", unless you mean to say that AI is not worth delegating to.
- bluGill 5mo agoThat depends very much on what work you assign. There is some work not worth assigning to AI because you can't figure out how to teach them to do it (if/once you do that will change). There is some work you can assign to AI because you can teach them to do it well enough with the requirements you feel like writing.
