AI同事

When your most productive 'colleague' never takes sick days, never gossips by the coffee machine, and definitely never steals your lunch from the fridge — because it's an AI. The meme captures the absurd new office dynamic where workers simultaneously rely on AI tools to do half their job and quietly panic that the AI will eventually want the whole job. It's workplace gallows humor for the automation age, equal parts grateful and terrified.

As Chinese tech firms raced to deploy large language models and AI productivity tools throughout 2024–2025, white-collar workers found themselves onboarding 'digital colleagues' into daily workflows. Against a backdrop of economic slowdown and competitive job markets, the meme channels real anxiety: if the AI does it faster and cheaper, what exactly am I here for? It resonates especially with younger office workers already cynical about corporate life.
