Every innovation that has promised a reduction in the need for labour has resulted in companies using it to try and reduce head count. That isn’t an *AI* thing, that’s a *capitalism* thing.
Capitalists are excited for cheaper slaves.
Big nope, it’s going to just bring us together. Hopes……
In before the inevitable „AI told us water is important for life“…
I think Ed is a bit too ‘foaming at the mouth’ on AI. I listened to him a bit but his passion combined with his views is clouding his judgement on this topic. He’s out here saying “AI’s don’t work, no AI agents work” when this is just false. Not as good as the hype? Definitely, but in the company I’m at we use AI in our work literally every day, I use AI agents successfully in my Projects every day.
Maybe if you work the tech space AI’s successes are more obvious?
Was really excited at first but the dumb word Synthesizer only makes the most common averaged text ever. So boring. There’s nothing to it. I can just Google the crap myself…
People???? You mean corp executives who aren’t people–they sold their souls to money
duhh
70% of the costs in software sector is headcount,
Billionaires. Billionaires are excited to replace human beings.
FTFY.
Also, get fucked, Ed.
Who?
Not a single person i know wants AI anything really. Im so tired of hearing out of touch c suite idiots talking about it. I cant wait for the crash.
