  AI is for the idiot investors to believe in only

  And, it’s also a good way yo turn “we fired 30 people because our company is failing” into “we replaced 30 positions with AI”

    There was an experiment a couple years ago I remember reading about concluding that of all the jobs that ““AI”” could replace, C-suites were the one category where the computer outperformed humans in a statistically-significant amount

      Let’s be real; C-suite positions are rarely filled by anyone who brings actual value to the company. They’re figureheads, but they’re also largely interchangeable.

      And with so many CEOs, CTOs, etc., doing so much of their jobs with LLMs, that basically proves that you don’t need actual intelligence in those positions.
