My take: humans should never depend on AI for anything serious.

My boss' take: Cool. I'm gonna ask Gemini about it, he's such a smart guy. I know I can trust him, and in case it goes bad i can always throw him under the bus.

Interesting that Frank Herbert thought this was the direction humanity was headed when writing Dune in the 60s, way before AI was prevalent.

Granted that was over ten thousand years before his story is set, but subsequent Dune novels (or at least God Emperor) explained his warning about over-reliance on technology for doing our thinking for us, not that it should never be developed (given the prohibition in the Dune universe and how it's skirted in Frank's later novels).
