Management makes me laugh. They often make decisions on a whim without thorough planning. In my opinion, AI is here to stay. However, as companies like Ford have realized, you cannot replace humans with AI. AI is simply a tool for humans.
Everytime I am sitting in a meeting and management starts talking about AI, I find my self thinking we never got these presentations for windows Notepad (or any other software for that matter).
The problem is that managers think AI is this oracle intelligence we’ve created that we can collaborate with, that it should be treated like a supernatural partner, and that it has greater abilities than we humans do. They actually believe this.
WHY ELSE would we GIVE UP all our computing power in order to have it? Surely it must be real because EVERYONE IS DOING IT!
No dumbass, your friends jumped off a bridge and you said “oh, must be fine”.
I don’t think the job cuts and re-allocations are managers deciding that teams can be replaced by AI. It’s the company re-allocating resources to try to develop AI, because acquiring VC and the staff for that is challenging so they redirect it from other parts of their business.
I think that, to the surprise of no one who actually works for a living, they have encountered the ceiling of generative AI abilities (although it’s not implemented in a public facing app yet), and they know it’s never going to be more than an incremental boost to productivity.
Is metaverse replacing entire internet yet?
“Come on, I still have to employ you all?!” - Zuck
“hello fellow humans, your use of AI has been inadequete”- zuckerborg.
lmao, what would he expect on a glorified sorting algorithm?
