In leaked recording, Nvidia CEO says its insane managers aren't using AI enough

> "Nvidia isn't alone, as tech giants have taken measures to push employees to incorporate more AI into their day-to-day work. Both Microsoft and Meta plan to evaluate employees based on their AI usage, and Google told engineers to use AI for coding, Business Insider reported. Amazon was in talks to adopt the AI coding assistant Cursor after employees requested it…"

My company also told us they are tracking how much we use AI and how much we use it will be factored into our yearly performance reviews.

francisofascii•2mo ago
It is interesting because plenty of organizations ban the use of AI in many situations. One client I work for blocks Copilot in VSCode when on their VPN.

"after employees requested it…" riiiiiight...
stalfosknight•2mo ago
Why must executives be so fucking obnoxious about shoving AI into every possible orifice?

>And if AI does not work for a specific task, "use it until it does," he added.
davesque•2mo ago
Because there's a lot of money in it.
Lapsa•2mo ago
executives doing heavy dick measuring on who's using more AI - winner gets the contract and dough
jqpabc123•2mo ago
Anyone with half a brain knows that AI is unreliable. It can and will make mistakes.

Who gets the blame for this?

It's like insisting that managers hire unreliable people because they're cheaper --- but the managers know they will pay the price for doing so.

zcw100•2mo ago
Ha! When was the last time anyone took the blame for crappy code? This is an industry with zero accountability for quality. Fail fast right? At least when I tell an LLM it's wrong it says, "You're absolutely right" and gets to fixing it rather than an hour lecture about why they're totally correct and justified because of their version of "best practices".
jqpabc123•2mo ago
LLMs are being used for a lot more than code generation.
lux-lux-lux•2mo ago
> Who gets the blame for this?

The computer, which cannot be held accountable. See how that works?

thegrim33•2mo ago
Well the point is the manager gets the praise/promotion/etc for reducing costs and supposedly improving performance, and then they bounce and leave the company, moving on to the next place, before the long term effects can be evaluated.
cratermoon•2mo ago
If AI were actually any good programmers would have to sneak it in the backdoor, without the knowledge of management and their "approved software", like we do with almost any tool we find that really works.
Lapsa•2mo ago
well said
cratermoon•2mo ago
Thank you. I've been telling people that for a while now. The best tools rarely (never?) come from top executives down to the hands-on-keyboards people. The programmers are the ones in the best position to determine what will help them do their jobs, and frequently those tools are not on the approved lists because they are new and haven't (yet) made it to the Gartner "Magic Quadrant".
cjbenedikt•2mo ago
Hmmm...he almost comes across as desperate. Wonder why...
64718283661•2mo ago
I would never install these ai tools on my computer. It's going to immediately scan and upload my source code. Why would I want them to steal my code? Nothing good can come from that.
windows2020•2mo ago
Makes sense an 'AI' chip maker would say that.
solsane•2mo ago
Title is a bit off, for those who care about the distinction.

> Nvidia has some managers who are telling their people to use less AI
