They’re totally just firing everyone to keep major corporations alive a little longer and blaming it on AI cause China is destroying us in the trade war cause capitalism’s collapsing.

EDIT: Wait wtf he said his own job isn’t safe? All this “AI taking entry level jobs” bs is masking how companies can’t afford to hire entry level workers anymore. Is he trying to deflect blame or implying mother fucking GOOG might go under?? Holy shit if that happens add another communist holiday to the list!

    His job isn’t at risk because he controls the tech and he decides the firing. He has to say that to show how advanced AI is. Any CEO is a deals guy and does a lot of sleazy selling tactics to convince the board he’s good

    So trying to deflect blame while also pretending LLMs can somehow replace high level management.

    We can still hope.

    High level management seems like the easiest thing to replace with an LLM. They're not applying any sort of specialized knowledge, just some combination of playing it safe and wrecking policy due to their hallucinations.
