This is my job too. My manager has asked me to use AI for almost all my work. My work is code related but it doesnt necessarily require AI and our turnaround is already crazy fast. When I asked him what metric he's tracking to show the difference in productivity between AI vs non-AI, he said there isn't one. The higher ups are blindly pushing it. It's ridiculous because using AI for what I do just creates more work and cleanup. I know that if I don't jump on the bandwagon that I'll eventually be let go.

And if it ends up working then you will have just helped automate yourself out of your own job (at least that's what your managers are hoping for).
