This seems utterly silly. It’s like saying “I don’t believe we should use the internet it’s against my religion” and then trying to work a tech job without it.
Maybe I can go to work in a tech company and object to computers. I only use a typewriter. I also rode a horse to get here.
This only seems like it could backfire on the individual. Everyone else in the company is going to use it and come midyear review, they will have run laps around you and your pile of sticky notes and spreadsheets, using your inbox like a filing system.
My religion does not permit me to use Agile. I only track my work on a notepad I keep in my drawer. I won’t go to the daily stand, won’t participate in sprint planning nor PI planning. Hey, why is everyone getting more done than I am?
That’s like saying “We can’t do anything about hiring discrimination against people in wheelchairs because what if one wants to be a firefighter?” Employers must give reasonable accomodations, which, if provided, enable an employee to do the job. If you have a tech job and have a moral objection to computers or the internet, you won’t be able to do your job and that is not a reasonable accommodation.
All this means is that a manager can’t force you to use AI so long as you’re able to meet performance standards without it. It’s incredibly reasonable and your argument is completely disconnected from reality.

That’s not how anything works.
