Google’s Sergey Brin Says Engineers Should Work 60-Hour Weeks in Office to Build AI That Could Replace Them - SLRPNK

Another great example of why engineers should not be in charge of people, nor people’s wellbeing.
Who else is an example of this? This seems like something that comes commonly from the MBAs that cosplay as techies. And while Brin is one of the few tech leaders who actually has any claim to technical brilliance, he has now been in management far longer than he ever was in a technical role.

Generally the actual term used is technocrat.

People opposed to them would generally say they get focused on the end result and neglect the human aspect.

Where did you hear that? Technocracy means rule by specialists and technical experts. For example, in a technocracy, career bureaucrats aren’t in charge of ecological policy.
You can have a technocrat without a technocracy.
Is this guy called a technocrat because he actually wants his engineers to rule?
