This is the most tone deaf dystopian shit I’ve ever read, jesus christ.

Either he’s been selling the AI kool aid for so long that he actually believes his own bullshit, or he’s just stuck in “must sell AI for all things at all times always” mode. Either way it’s a new level of depravity for these exec assholes.

You need to have no capacity for empathy to be a ceo

I think it shows how much they dont understand how it is to live without money.

maybe they already replaced this producer with AI.

AI would replace CEOs better than devs, and you’d save a lot more money. What’s the issue if we’re so confident in it?

I mean that would save millions and millions of dollars right off the top. Between salary, bonuses and stock were talking hundreds of millions in some cases. Maximum shareholder value increase.

no no we can’t risk the future of the company on AI.

Immediately 95% of companies would be better run.

Given posts like this, he’s probably already using an AI for everything. While still siphoning away company money for a bloated paycheck, of course! What’s that saying about having your cake and eating it, too?

I prefer having your cake and fucking it, too.

Imagine if the CEO who laid you off was also your psychologist/therapist who you have to turn to. What in the actual fuck is wrong with these people.

Decades and decades of no consequences for their actions. If your bonus gets bigger despite every meaningful kpi you aren’t are great CEO, you are a capitalist exploiting your resources.

Being rewarded for their actions.

It’s quite amazing how these people show their asses on LinkedIn and think it makes them look smart, instead of proving that they completely lost touch with reality. It fits the picture that one the very same day they laid of thousands, Microsoft also send out an invitation to hear them pitch genAI at GamesCom. That’s corpo brain on late stage capitalism.

This is wonderful advice! Thank you, John Xbox! I may be without a job, but I will keep on using your products like the mindless consumer I am, so that your paychecks will keep on growing.
God, this is so out of touch that it stops being funny and becomes genuinely uncanny. Like, are these people even real? Are they robots piloted by Skynet? Am I the only real person on the entire planet?

Goddamned shameless ghoul, holy fucking shit. We're really in full-on Idiocracy mode, only these morons feel like they have to mention AI in every single sentence instead of Carl's Jr...

There it is. “Use AI” is the new “learn to code”.
