My college student writes his papers without it.

My high schooler is in a "No AI" AP Lang class. They have to write things by hand a lot. He uses AI to study math and chemistry. Particularly to drill for tests. He finds that effective.

I have office software AI at work. So far it hasn't saved me much time.

I recently saw an analysis that said AI is excellent at quickly producing stuff that used to waste a lot of time and doesn't matter a whole lot. Like performance review comments. I agree.

Your job as a manager is care enough to put time and consideration into your employees' reviews. Come on. Be better or stop being a manager.

I'm not a manager. I am an "independent contributor". And I hate performance review season because few managers, even good ones, manage to give useful feedback via a formal documented process.

The whole HR industry is very aware of what is going on with AI and reviews.

If you actually care, you might be interested in this HR thoughtleader.

lol, no, thanks. I don't need an "HR thought leader" to tell me it's ok to abdicate my humanity to a climate-killing mediocrity machine.

OK, I find that person interesting. She reports on trends more than she recommends. Most of my managers over the years managed to abdicate their humanity without AI, so there's that.

Anyway, this thread was supposed to be about high school student work and you manager types got all self-righteous about the value of performance reviews just because I gave them as an example of AI being good at valueless work. Let's return to the main topic. Did you answer it? I did.
