I have been in IT for 20 years, have both a BS and MS in Information Technology, and I will never understand why EVERYONE has such a hard-on for AI; especially given its track record of “hallucinations”.
I don't doubt that you're good with technology but, I've met MANY people in the information technology field, even with their MS, who were fucking idiots and barely knew shit about technology outside what they needed to know for their specific job.
I've never seen an IT project where the majority of people on it had an ad blocker installed.
I definitely overestimated how tech savvy IT workers were before I started working with them.
I work for a company where ad-blockers can't be installed, for security reasons.
Where I work we have a whitelisted set of extensions we can install from the Chrome store (no Firefox unfortunately).
