520			_aOrganizations worldwide are concerned about workers using generative pretrained transformers (GPTs), which can generate human-like text in seconds at work. These organizations are setting rules on how and when to use GPTs. This article focuses on street-level bureaucrats' (SLBs) intentions to use GPTs even if their public organization does not allow its use (tech rule-breaking). Based on a mixed-methods exploratory design, using focus groups (N = 14) and a survey experiment (N = 279), we demonstrate that SLBs intend to break the rules and use GPTs when their competitors from the private sector have access to artificial intelligence (AI) tools. We discuss these findings in the context of hybrid forms of public management and the Promethean moment of GPTs.- Reproduced https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/puar.13824
