A relative sacked a team at his finance firm for using AI.

Short version : 1. Document ( transcripts of phone conversations, Bloomberg chats, WhatsApp messages etc ) need to be collected and collated accurately on a periodic basis for an industry regulator.

2. The very highly paid team used AI to inaccurately perform the task.

3. The resulting errors could have resulted in jail time for the decision makers.

4. The team was removed.

They were sacked for using AI wrong, not for using AI. Tool use was a human skill long before AI.
They were sacked for vibe-working, which is how AI is supposed to be used if you listen to some business hype. Of course it is not how it's supposed to be used according to people who actually know the current situation.
