"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Replace ALL CEOs with AI first
Oh I'm sure, at least in some small measure, this was exactly the mindset that pushed this shit into every facet of existence. Some rich fucks realized genAI could do their dumb ass jobs better than them for a fraction of the cost, so they spent the last few years doing all they can to show how genAI can actually do the jobs of service workers and creative types, better.
A few suggestions that would incentivise actual growth and improvement rather than market fraud and personal enrichment.
Cap CEO compensation to a reasonably "fair" multiple of their workforces average. Compensation type must match that average as well (cash/stock/scrip.) Bonuses follow the same rules.
Stock buybacks require the company to commit to both workforce and r&d budget increases of the same value before they can be done again.
Mass layoffs require issuance of new stock that match the % of the workforce cut.
