They Cloned Me, Then Begged

Summary

I spent eight years at the company, working my way up from a green rookie to the most expensive expert on the entire East Coast.

Then the company gave me an AI assistant. I thought it was a perk.

It wrote my weekly reports, answered my emails, and organized my data. I loved using it.

Three months later, HR called me in with a termination agreement.

"The AI assistant has already distilled you into an AI clone. The company doesn't need you anymore."

So that assistant hadn't been helping me. It had been replacing me.

I signed and left.
