For the back half of the 20th century (what Fortune founder Henry Luce called “The American Century”), MBA and law degree programs were a ticket to a great office job and a path to the American Dream. The 21st century is asking the question: What happens when all those office jobs get automated?..
‘Experts’ have been saying this shit for years. Literally at least two decades.
Meanwhile, how many companies have had to backpedal (even recently) because they went too far with their dependency on AI, and everything went to shit and they had to rehire a bunch of humans?
So we can set on this as the AI equivalent of “cold fusion in 50 years” phisics constant?
He will be replaced in 18 months, that much I can believe.
He’s an executive. They never fail- only transferred with a promotion.
I give it 18 months for the AI bubble to crash, and that’s being generous.
Nobody wants this shit, let alone enough to pay for it. The novelty has worn off for anyone with half a brain. People can’t even afford modern hardware. And if big tech can’t turn theft into a profitable business, then how is this ever going to pan out?
Not feeling very confident, Microslop. The AI dudes usually promise their industry takeovers every six months, not 18.
Based in CEO claims AI should have replaced me 4-5 times over by now. It’s still shitty. I’m still here.
Yeah on the one hand you may still be there but a lot of us are getting fired by our idiotic bosses because they think the AI can replace us
That’s the shitty part. The news always says they have to hire them all back eventually but it’s not guaranteed to be the same group.
For many, AI is just the latest excuse to downsize and juice the quarterly revenue numbers for shareholders.
If AI could do this then the work would have already been outsourced to cheaper countries.
Just because you spent billions on it doesn’t mean its good
“…and is the AI superintelligence in the room with us right now?” 😆
sure jan
Famous words that will be swallowed.

I’ve not tried to get an LLM to create a CAD model yet. I’m sure it’s possible. I’m also sure whatever it came up with would need me to go over it and fix all the mistakes…
…hey, this must be how coders feel right now.
It is, for sure. It’s even worse when you get pull requests from non-coders that think they can just point an LLM at GitHub and say “go fix this bug”.
“Maybe if I expose the bug to the bug that created it, they will cancel out”
Yeah and computers only need 640K.
It seems to be trying to get rid of me already by making it take 5 sign in attempts to join a teams call late
Microsoft, how much do you want to wager my job will be replaced by AI? Just assume I also have billions of other people’s money to spend like you do, and give me the sum you bet if this doesn’t pan out.
Dumbass
