MODERATORS
My job has AI usage as an objective as well. It's ridiculous. If a tool will make my job easier, then I'll be the one to tell you, and I'll be the first person advocating for it. The people in charge aren't doing my job, so they can fuck off with the micromanagement.
That actually hasn't been my experience of programmers' behaviour. There are many developers who can't be bothered to set up tools like IDEs, intellisense, debuggers, etc. which would definitely make them faster after the initial setup. I can easily believe it's the same for AI.
That said, it does seem silly to require you to use it.
