So here's the question I wanted to pose around AI usage. With modern advanced AI, much of the time, using AI consists of sending a message a waiting a long time (often an hour or more) before the AI finishes a task.
Which I think brings up an important question, is it okay to take short work breaks to send instructions to AI working on your personal projects during work hours?
Do any employers have policies around this? And how does it interact with legal standards?
Are the rules around work-product well suited to the modern AI age?
Does it matter if I'm hourly vs salaried?
Should we do the same thing for work (asking work AI to do things occasionally during personal time)?
