Some People Hate AI CEOs So Little That It’s Almost Hard to Believe
As a late 30s software engineer, I have had a disdainful view of C-suites for pretty much the entire span of my career.
It started with understanding that the leadership of technical companies had become so profit-oriented that actual good engineering was getting short-changed. All I have to do to illustrate my point here is mention a single company, which used to be a paragon of engineering and an absolutely unbeatable powerhouse in their industry: Boeing.
I think American technical expertise used to be exceptional. But now, as a direct function of the flat-lining quality and caliber of our corporate, technical, and economic leadership, the only thing I’d describe us as exceptional at is financial “engineering”. To be clear, I don’t consider that to be real engineering. It’s just applied math and logic being used to systematically take advantage of regulatory loopholes in ways that fundamentally abuse the intent of said regulatory loopholes, with no real consideration for the long term or second/third/etc-order systemic effects of such parasitic economic manipulation. It is fundamentally caustic by nature, and actively destroys long term value. I and the entirety of my generation have watched it destroy long term value over the course of our careers.
Not just young people. I’m over forty and I can’t stand those shit gibbons.
What about the kids in college using their services for all their assignments?
This has the same logic as “well if they hate the company so much, why do they live in the company town?”.
I’m just saying there’s people using and paying for these services and then complaining about the effects of their actions…
And they are allowed to complain. There isn’t always a viable alternative either due to monopolization or restrictions on what students are allowed to use. Condemning the people that are agreeing with you and looking to escape the system is a really stupid and nearsighted move.
Maybe college has changed recently but I can’t imagine a class outside of AI development or AI business where use of those services would be necessary. In most circumstances it’s students avoiding doing the work, at least from my understanding.
the viable option to using AI is to use your own mind that you were born with.
people who are heavily reliant on AI are not going to end up educated enough to fight back, they’re going to remain reliant on AI. that is the problem.
A slave showed disrespected to me the other day.
After all we have done to them giving them work… i know, it’s hard to believe.
For some reason they hate us slave owners even more than they do the enforcers we employ to lay down our law.
Have you tried beating your slaves until morale improves?
