Some are competent, but generally they're only competent as a subclass of class traitor. In terms of competence as workers, they're almost always significantly lacking. Though are meant to pretend to be.
The AI thing it's, on a whole, a drive to break up labor. But on an individual level, as workers interact with that system, it's largely managers that are adopting it due to their incompetence and fear of their staff.
I think the current drive is meant to be wholly threat based, if they were acting properly, they wouldn't do me layoffs. They'd instead slow hiring and put the monster next to everyone. When they play their hand and actually try and replace people with it, it breaks everything and ruins the illusion.
