Ask HN: Are managers engaging differently post-LLM?

[pickledoyster]

Anecdotally, me and colleagues I talk to are getting a lot more micro-management and nitpicking from managers. The nitpicks and changes requested seem to be increasing at other companies where I have friends, too.

I know that my direct manager is using a popular chatbot for generating work-related slop, which would make them more inclined towards redoing stuff just for the sake of it.

So, an unqualified thought I had was that the nitpicks and micromanagement might be a result of managers/execs getting into LLMs.

I couldn't find anything tangible on this topic, and am unsure if it's just about my company going down the drain process/management wise. What's your experience?
