every mom ever: "if everyone else were jumping off a bridge, would you jump off too?"

every CEO: "it's the new trend! jump or be left behind! jumping i go!"

@paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall This is why I've always suggested people say things like "so easy, even your CEO could use it" rather than the more common one.
@paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall (footnote: I *might* be biased, given that my mum taught me to code, way back when. :) )
@datarama @paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall Another mom here. I think you have the right kind of bias. (I learned to code 50 years ago.)
@paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall Indeed, I’m increasingly convinced the reason CEO are convinced AI may substitute everyone is that it can surely substitute their work and they think they are god so clearly it should be able to substitute everybody else. After all they are paid as thousands of them.
