They should just ask ChatGPT for some advice on how to make the company more money and email that to him

    Have you guys tried using "variables?" That's what we need: constantly keep it fresh so we're not stagnating! See what you can come up with and let's plan to schedule some time to touch base on this!

    I'm seeing great uptake with these "variables", but I'm going to put marketing in the loop to make sure variable names are aligned with customer expectations. All new variables must be signed off after focus group testing and consultation. Why use i when you can use iVariablePro?

    Why don't they just replace the CEO with AI then?

    The company’s CEO, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, has thrown the entire company’s weight behind artificial intelligence, infamously boasting that the tech was doing the work of “700 full-time agents” last year — only to regret his decision months later, admitting that humans play an important role after all.

    Siemiatkowski claimed that he went from being a “business person” to an amateur developer thanks to vibe coding, allowing him to come up with a prototype in just 20 minutes.

    Siemiatkowski claimed his newfound hobby is saving his staff significant amounts of time — but whether Klarna engineers would agree with that sentiment remains unclear.

    What a shit show.

    You don't get to be CEO without weapons grade hubris, I guess.

    "Boss, if you knew how to do my job better than I do, you wouldn't need to pay me in the first place. The fact that I have to tell you this should have told you everything you need to know, but for the same reason won't, you utter dipshit."

    As someone who's lost colleagues to AI, and is directly closer to losing their own job, I can tell you they don't care.

    They intend to replace everyone in due time. They think they are brilliant, because chatgpt tells them they are brilliant. It's the ultimate ass-kissing machine, and they are ultimately vulnerable to all ass kissing.

    I thought this was either an Onion article or a plot for Silicon Valley.

    This guy has no idea how many people around the office are laughing at him, right now.

    My CEO does this and it is both cringe and highly disheartening.

    print2("string")

    def print2(string: String as String):
    if string and string == String and string != null and typeof(string)==String

           print(string)

    So I'm using ChatGPT right now to vibe code some hot fixes for my heavily modded version of S.T.A.L.K.E.R GAMMA (about 560 mods) and having it try to patch it when it crashes to desktop from the inevitable conflicts all these mods eventually have when you get enough of them running simultaneously.

    I've been at it for a few days now and it's still crashing, so I don't think I'm doing it right lol.

    Thank you for showing me how to do my job, oh wise leader.
