Yeah, you can also restate what was said as:

We are catastrophically incompetent at our jobs.

But don't worry, capitalism is totally based on merit.

... or maybe this just is the moment where it isn't capitalism anymore, and it is clear technofeudalism, with a class of incompetent robber barons running everything.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
