They probably use it more than anyone else, but the things you need to remember is that they don't do real jobs and they're generally pretty terrible at the fake jobs that they have. AI is perfect for that. They think it's literally magic. Imagine if all you did was look at and send emails all day every day and you were bad at that and a tool came by that made it so you barely had to read or send emails yourself anymore and it was usually pretty close to correct. They think that God has intervened on their behalf.
And then you can take it further, because they're bad at what they do they think that everybody else's job is even more fake than theirs because they make so much more money than anyone else that what they do has to be way harder than what the idiot employees do. Well if the magic AI tool can pretty much do my job and everybody else tautologically has a much easier job than me, then AI should be able to do those jobs even better. Then tack on the fact that, if they're right, they should get huge bonuses for cutting so many costs and you can understand pretty easily why they think the way that they do.
