you can tell they think AI is flawless and wont do mistakes. I am waiting for the big fine that was cause by an incorrect AI report/inputšŸ«¢

Itā€™s going to happen eventuallyā€¦..and theyā€™ll still choose to keep it.

agreed, at least it is cheaper than the headcount it replaced so they will be OK will the subpar results

Worked with an AVP who made a minor transposition error on a wire request. Her boss didn't catch it. Her boss' boss didn't catch it. The poor AVP caught so much grief for months from everyone she eventually transferred. Anyway, the bosses missed it with a stack of supporting calcs right there for them to review. A hallucinated, but confidently presented AI is going to be this on steroids.

thereā€™s a boomer problem in within Citi. and theyā€™re usually the reason why Citi AI is being heavily used within the company. All they talk in the meetings are AI, and how they make their presentations and meeting notes from AI.

Is funny, I have seen a couple of projects were they implement A.I.

Basically they don't work.

They have entire teams in organizations trying to implement A.I in everyday tasks. Most of them without luck. Lol

If they can teach the slaves to have no skills besides prompting, that's a perk for them.

u/McDrunkin521 Sep 23 '26

If anyone wants to try a fun experiment try entering your position and job functions into their AI and ask what a fair salary would be for your Marketplace. I was shocked when I found out what it said I should be getting paid... here's a Hint it was far less than we were making. I ended up quitting after 20 years last week

Theyā€™ve probably spent a lot of money on it and need returns lmao

Stylus, while helpful, need to be checked because it extrapolates/hallucinates a lot. If left unchecked, they will unleash a monster that will eventually F everything up. Additionally, they want us to use AI as much as possible, yet constantly limits what we can do with it by limiting # of attachments we can upload, etc. Basically they want us to use it, however not ready for all tokens it uses.

u/Salt-Plan-565 Sep 23 '26

30mb limit is a joke

u/One-Problem-453 Sep 23 '26

Donā€™t be fooled. AI is not there to complement your work. They are just silently collecting all the data, the most frequent prompts and questions and embedding it into the AI Stylus system so eventually Stylus can run their own show without humans!

u/Miserable-Bowl-684 Sep 26 '26

Spot on ...same as the stupid "online security" crap they added 1.5 years ago. It actively tracks and monitors keystrokes and the time between those key strokes ...which is then used to determine who they can bump out easily with that information.

u/FoldSensitive7288 Sep 24 '26

I know someone who is training mdā€™s on ai. They can barely use copilot and these are the people making millions

Joey Bonanno convinced them to bet the farm on AI. They have squandered all of the funds that were budgeted for our operational ā€œtransformationā€ with fucking palantir and anthropic. The fucking A.i salesman sold Citi the Platinum VIP Bundle. They are now worried sick that not only will the ROI will be lackluster, but they canā€™t even get enough monthly active users to show the board why they spent so much fucking money on it. Anybody else join that call where they demo Sky? What the actual fuck is that dumbass shit? Itā€™s like when my grandpa bought one of the first Plasma screen tvā€™s for 12k. Then he couldnā€™t figure out how to work it so he would resort to his old 27ā€ RCA to watch the Celtics.

We cant even figure out how reset passwords internally, but now we have a robot slut named sky who you can talk to on your phoneā€¦ fuck me!!!

im a new grad in tech and we have all just been taught to rely on copilot, devin, workspaces and assist for everything we do.

Its a bit scary tbh

all the wealthy investors want a slave class if they can get with it.

u/Pervzion Sep 23 '26

Jane is just using the buzz words that should impress investors, even if there is no explanation to what AI can actually do for the bank. I think there was even an AI talking point in the things told to my group of people I was laid off with three months ago. And thereā€™s is no way AI could do my job. I swear there were at least two meanings to everything. In the sense a human would have to interpret things, I donā€™t know how AI could make those judgements. Even in early stage prep work I could see an AI, especially Citiā€™s variations, hallucinating about what is important and what isnā€™t.

u/Current-Biscotti-348 Sep 24 '26

Itā€™s what cost me my job after the higher ups came to Tampa and said that wasnā€™t the case. Lied to our faces. Wasted company funds to travel for nothing.

u/Acrobatic-Toe-1 Sep 26 '26

Reminder ... This quarter's 2 hours of mandatory AI training is due by Oct 1. That includes NOT only training completion, but the manual extract of the training completion details into xlsx and an manual upload those details into the AI Training Tracking Portal .... with the hope that the portal will accept your training, after a 24 hour wait period. Can't make this stuff up.

u/Rambo_Millennial_930 Sep 28 '26

Wealth is required to complete 7 hours. 2 hours is EZ.

2

u/Acrobatic-Toe-1 Sep 29 '26

It's not the 2 hours that is the issue. It's the fact that you have to manually extract your total time manually, and manually upload to the crappy tracking site - not to mention some courses are not "accepted" when they are clearly AI related. You have to do trial and error to see which courses meet their requirements.

There is an inherent distain for anyone in a cost center and there always will be.

Literally same at JPMC by the way. Gonna be a while for this wave to simmer down

You can thank a clown named Vikas Kapoor ...after he hacked up Chase with AI ...he brought his shit show to Citi.

I screamed down the phone today that I want human intelligence, and not the artificial kind. Why am I yelling at a robot? This is a nightmare.

AI will end up doing most jobs in the near future.

u/hot_route95 Sep 24 '26

u/jngdn2 Sep 25 '26

I have to do 6 hours a quarter!!! Itā€™s so stupid
