It’s not the future.

At work, all thinking has basically become discouraged.

If you are not using AI agents for everything, you're doing something wrong, and wasting company time. It has been emphasized that no one should be writing code by hand and if you think an AI has implemented something wrong you need solid reasoning to show why or else people just label you as some anti-AI troublemaker, who just becomes an obstacle standing in the way of things getting done.

If your human generated opinion is in any way wrong or simply not a true homerun then you get snubbed in future reviews, people stop listening to you.

Free-thinking, critical thinking, has been considered taboo, or an exclusive privilege of the elite, in most human societies since the dawn of civilization.

You know who else was thinking? Hitler!
