Apologies - not a layoff/RTO post but rather a company AI policy question.
Anyone ( especially developers who do CRUD work using public libraries, writing scripts and NOT those on teams working on proprietary Dell software ) face actions like being fired or given targeted warnings for using cloud based AI?
Cloud based AI in this context is Cursor, Windsurf , Cline, Cody, Claude API, GPT API, Gemini API. I'm not including Deepseek API because I don't think any cloud provider uses that one. They just host Deepseek R1-471B using fireworksAI or they host it themselves.
Also I know about the Dell codeium deal and that is a self hosted model that is still in its baby phase to be smart as Claude or even GPT for that matter. I've spent quite a few weeks on it and it's not very impressive. Maybe Dell could just self host Deepseek R1-471B ?
