@carnage4life companies used to say they were customer obsessed. Now they’re all AI first with a clear compromising of customer quality in order to say they used AI
@baldur this is such a great line: “They are right. LLMs make work that doesn’t matter easier”. Also it seems like the folks around for dot com crash and Great Recession are being fired as well, so more likely to lose the internal skeptics

Ron JeffriesIf your company actually became vastly more productive, because of "AI" or whatever, you wouldn't lay off people: you would take on new efforts, make higher profits, have more things going on.

“I did 75% of it in two evenings” is the new “Can’t you just:” an unwitting indication that the speaker doesn’t even understand the problem
