I Asked an AI to Do My Job for a Week. It Asked for a Transfer.
I automated my entire job on a Monday. By Wednesday the bot was confidently inventing budgets. By Friday I understood what I was actually paid for.
AI can draft your emails, summarize your job, and generate a thousand masterpieces before your coffee cools. Meanwhile you walked into a room and forgot why. WeWeak is a support group for humans watching the future arrive — self-deprecating stories, gentle panic, and the one thing no bot can fake: actually meaning it.
Free forever. Hand-typed by humans. No login, no prompts, no "as an AI language model."
Today's group session:
One person argued with a chatbot for 40 minutes. The bot apologized twice. Nobody felt better. Healing occurred.
Somewhere between "AI will save us" and "AI will replace us," there's us: mildly doomed, deeply caffeinated, choosing laughter.
They can have the inbox zero and the 5 AM routines. We're keeping the long lunches, the pointless laughter, and the feelings.
A bot can summarize your job. It cannot be embarrassed by it. Embarrassment is ours. So is joy, for that matter.
Asking AI what to do, then doing the exact opposite, is a 200,000-year-old human tradition. We will not be automating it.
The bot produces 1,000 perfect endings in a second. You get to live one. Yours has typos and stakes and counts for more.
Nobody on their deathbed ever said "I wish my inbox were cleaner." (We didn't ask an AI to verify this. That's deliberate.)
And slightly more honest. The bot says "as a language model." We say "as a person who is very tired." Only one of those is comforting.
You are enough. The AI said so, and it's literally programmed to be polite.
No sign-up. No tracking. Not even an API call — these were hand-typed out of pure, inefficient spite.
We checked. It's mostly because we can open jars and pretend to listen in meetings.
I automated my entire job on a Monday. By Wednesday the bot was confidently inventing budgets. By Friday I understood what I was actually paid for.
Three years of feelings, summarized in four polite paragraphs with zero typos. My friends knew immediately: humans don't say things exactly once.
I demanded purpose from a language model. It suggested hydration and boundaries. I was furious. Then I realized I'd basically been journaling at a vending machine.
Performance reviews written by models, meetings that should've been prompts, and your ongoing rivalry with software that doesn't even know you exist.
💔 Heartbreak.exeDating apps, bot-written texts, read receipts, and the deeply human habit of catching feelings on purpose despite all data advising against it.
🧺 Adulting.exeThe chores, taxes, and towels no AI has offered to handle, plus the smart home that judges you while you fail.
🌌 Existential Snack BreaksWhat are humans for? Will the bots remember us kindly? And is this cheese still good? Usually around 11 PM.
That almost-laugh at your own obsolescence counts as a healing experience. If it did, fund the next story with a very small, very caffeinated act of defiance against the machine.
