    Funny, management can't be held accountable either.

    Sounds like most politicians and all billionaires.

    We currently don't hold people/corporations accountable either, so I don't see much of a difference in what we put in charge.

    this is %90 of the reason why there are consultancy companies, I guess they will be replaced by AI which is equally good at producing wrong information while sounding completely confident about it.

    Seems legit to me. I found a 2017 Twitter post with this in it.

    Unfortunately destroyed by flood in 2019 with most of my things. Inquired at the retirees club zoom last week, but there’s almost no one the right age left. Not sure where else to ask.

    This one just goes down as true 🫡

    edit: goes down as true in a way that I won’t be able to accept in post-2022 years 😢

    I know... but... can we actually give up the hilarious situation of a ceo being fired and replaced with a management a.i, that is ultimately just an agentic LLM. So it eventually destroys the company.

    This is bullshit.

    I've seen people fired from my company and replaced by AI.

    Let's see the executives and managers go next. It's far, Far, FAR fucking easier to replace them.
