Our team is moving from Azure DevOps to #Jira. In learning to navigate the new shiny, I happen to hit the very prominently display AI-button “Improve Description” on an Epic. I watch in horror as it starts to omit details and re-write the customer’s detailed description of what they want IT to do here. Luckily, I know this epic because I've been involved earlier. This enables me to catch the subtle changes that significantly alters the intent and meaning of the original text.
The new text is fine, good grammar and 100% plausible sounding, but IT IS NOT CORRECT!!!
Anyone coming in cold to the ticket would not know and then we'd possibly build the wrong thing, or at the very least, waste a lot of time backtracking why the customer claims we're wildly off track.
Scary stuff this #AI.

@airwhale Further evidence that this level of differentials should be kept from vital, root infrastructure, until more of an accurate, manageable differential range is accomplished... ya know, like justifiable, human peers. #BoycottAI

@airwhale A “randomized this text” button just doesn’t ever seem like a useful thing to have

@airwhale Has your Jira done this yet? I couldn't dismiss it fast enough.

@airwhale I’ve heard Jira called many things, but “new shiny” is not one of them…

@airwhale thoughts and prayers to all the poor souls who are forced to use Jira on daily base in order to pay their rent and food
