#Deloitte’s #AI slip-up reveals bigger threat to #consultingfirms

https://www.semafor.com/article/10/08/2025/deloittes-ai-slip-up-reveals-bigger-threat-to-consulting-firms

The Deloitte AI report scandal is a symptom, not the disease.
The disease is the deliberate hollowing out of the public service, creating a dependency on expensive consultants who now don't even bother to do the work themselves.
We need to end the reliance on the Big Four and invest in a robust, capable public service.

"#Blinken is currently tied up helping Israel rape, pillage, and murder its way across the Middle East and possibly trigger a nuclear holocaust, but his equally dedicated, upstanding co-founders and managing partners are still on hand to help #WestExec’s lucky clients." - #KenSilverstein

#ConsultingFirms literally accelerated #inequality, especially the work of Arch Patton, who started the trend of supercharging C executive salaries. And the current trend of 'reorganizing' via layoffs is from them. They're famous for taking the best students of top schools and overworking their employees. People love to go there for a few years because it literally springboards them to better job opportunities, i.e. higher pay 

If we know all of this, how can they be stopped?

Consulting firms doing the work of government?
"The previous Coalition government spent $20.8bn outsourcing more than a third of #PublicService operations, an audit has found. The equivalent of 54,000 full-time staff were employed by the federal government in 2021-22, or 37% of the actual workforce."

"Governments are increasingly reliant on consulting firms. Critics says it's often to their detriment. Economics professor Mariana Mazzucato is alarmed at how much governments rely on consulting firms."
"But what we've witnessed in the last 50 years is the #dismantling of the capacity within our government organisations to even be a good partner to these other organisations."
