When facing a strict boss, office workers always come up with some surprising "survival tactics." Recently, Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber, revealed during a podcast interview that the company's engineers had developed an "AI version of Dara" to ensure smooth reporting to him.
This interesting tool has been affectionately called "Dara AI" by employees. Khosrowshahi mentioned that team members told him that many groups would first practice their presentations (PPTs) with this "virtual boss" before officially submitting them. Through feedback from "Dara AI," engineers could refine the logic of their slides repeatedly, accurately predict the sharp questions their boss might ask, and thus perform flawlessly in real meetings.
Khosrowshahi was not angry about this but instead praised the innovative behavior. He said that Uber is essentially a large codebase, and engineers are the architects of the company. According to him, about 90% of Uber's software engineers are already using AI tools in their work, with 30% being deep users who even use AI to rethink the company's underlying architecture.
AIbase noticed that this "using AI to deal with an AI boss" behavior highlights the huge potential of AI in improving internal communication efficiency within companies. Khosrowshahi sighed that the impact of AI on productivity was unprecedented in his career. Currently, these engineers are not only building the "bricks" of the system, but also thinking about the company's future like master builders through AI.
Summary:
🤖 Virtual Boss Avatar: Uber engineers developed a chatbot called "Dara AI" to simulate the CEO's way of thinking, helping employees conduct stress tests before official presentations.
📈 Productivity Explosion: The CEO revealed that nine out of ten engineers have integrated AI into their daily work, and AI is reshaping the company's development processes and architectural thinking at an unprecedented speed.
💡 New Posture for Workplace Survival: Employees use AI to refine presentations and predict questions from senior management. This "mock exam" model effectively improves the quality and success rate of cross-level communication.
