Manager too reliant on AI
Ever since we got Claude and access to its latest models, i feel like my manager who is from a non technical background is heavily reliant on the use of AI to build platforms. It really annoys me because he knows absolutely nothing about the practicality of programming, best practices and so on but uses Claude to spit out mini softwares/scripts for the business. When we go on weekly meeting calls, the director, ceo is extremely happy because they want to be “AI first” or whatever it is but man when i mention my tasks done which i guess is the boring etl stuff or whatnot - it does not bat an eye.
Like my job is to plan out the backend and provide the best of my knowledge but i feel like i am being excluded from this current project. My experience mainly relies on Data analytics and data engineering (context - i work for a smb so our internal office headcount is low)
But man i just feel like negative about the situation not being included in projects. AI spits everything out for him and now he thinks he understands it all. Yes i am salty/bitter about this but i do notice there is actually lack of skill.
I guess what really triggered me was that we have an active database/server and i suggested to use this since everything is set up and we have a subscription but he wants to use Supabase whereas we have Azure.
Like let the people who have the skills to do the work why is he taking over everything :/ . Maybe i am being replaced and its time to find a new job i guess 🤷♂️
I may be overreacting and i feel bitter rn but i hope to hear opinions from you.
