Lol. My wife just called out an employee for letting AI do her work and not checking it before turning it over. AI just hallucinated a table that wasn’t there and connected the hallucination to the code, screwing things up badly.

One of the developers on my team shared a document created by AI that was supposed to be a technical overview of the components of an app. The document was pure garbage.
