Just what a group of people already known for their firm grasp of reality, emotional maturity, and straight edge sobriety need.

Funny how AI is making companies productive while layoffs keep increasing and the workloads keep getting worse…

Someone needs to be brave and present a CEO agent to Satya Nadella or Mark Zuckerberg, or Andy Johnson. Show them how their job can be replaced with AI.
Their ego is so large they’d probably love it. Blinded by self worth, they’d approve it, not realizing that their own workers are revolting and trying to get their CEO fired. To bring in someone who isn’t overspending on worthless tech that can’t actually deliver in the last mile.

Hah, my CEO had psychosis before 2024

Whenever you see a post about an AI layoff, a massive claim about its capabilities and productivity benefits, forcing everyone to use it, insane amounts of capex and token spend, etc, remember that this is what’s underlying that.
The technology’s psychological effects are prolonging the bubble.

My company just got bought by another company and I literally lost count of how many times the phrase “AI” was said during the welcome message.

This is pretty indisputable. Just look at how they’re talking about their interactions with AI recently. It’s insane.
They are hallucinating right alongside their LLMs.

These all may apply:
– AI psychosis
– God complex
– Dragon sickness
– Sociopathy / Psychopathy

You can just say psychosis to apply to everything they do

They already made sure they’re surrounded by yes-men, now they just found their personal ideal „worker“ and are so desperate to believe it’s all real for the sake of their egos

I mean, aren’t they just running for their lives with this stuff, marketing the fuck out of it and hoping the house of cards doesn’t fall?
Maybe some of them are true believers, but I can’t imagine most of them using these slop machines all that much. Why would they?

Not surprised. I’ve been a programmer and also been a consultant to CTOs and CEOs.
They go to a swanky conference where they are told about companies who have cut software staff by 70%. In their imperial way they then proclaim the company is doing it. In those presentations, however, no one talks about declining customer satisfaction, or technical debt.
However, one of the giant consulting firms did an audit, and discovered 95% of enterprise AI projects (meaning CEO driven in most cases) were ultimately abandoned. You just can’t write a detailed enough prompt to cover things the way people think you might

Not just tech CEOs. Every CEO seems to have it. How else do you explain a *shoe company* deciding to pivot to AI?

And substance abuse. All the most recent interviews with Musk, Karp, and Bezos they’re all incoherent and rambling, like tweakers with an infinite money glitch. Zuck constantly seems like he’s too high all the time, and trying too hard not to show it.

And this is on top of the brain damage they already have from excessive wealth.
Yes, excessive wealth over an extended period of time is scientifically proven to have found reduced empathy, increased entitlement, and general misanthropy.
We idolize these people as „successful“ and „winners of the game“, and wonder why the world is the way it is.

My company literally made an ai agent that simulates our client base. That way they can ask it if something is a good idea or they like an idea. It always says yes!

>In other words, Levie’s theory posits, CEOs don’t really understand processes well enough to know what really can and can’t be automated. But that lack of knowledge doesn’t stop them from acting on their beliefs.
This just isn’t tech CEO’s this is all CEO’s who don’t actually perform the functions of company operations so have no idea how long something takes or why we can’t do it that way.

I saw a local panel of “business leaders” speak at some hotel ballroom earlier this year. One of them described AI as a “money printer” and that he was ranking employees by token usage.
The company wasn’t software based. I had no idea what this fucking clown was talking about. No specifics. Just platitudes and bombast.

I was offered a job in one of Floridas highest cost of living cities recently. I didn’t apply to it. They headhunted me. I am a software engineer with 20+ years behind me in my career.

I’m pretty sure chasing infinite profits causes psychosis but sure let’s blame AI

Lmao we already know that’s not the end result of CEOs using AI “a ton.”

They believe AGI is just around the corner, of course they are nuts, it been clear for over a year that this LLM path will likely never lead to AGI because this is not Artificial intelligence but Pseudo Intelligence
It might look intelligent on the surface, but beneath its just faking it all the way, it has zero actual understanding of..well anything

My Director of Operations sat us down in a meeting and said „we’re looking to see how to implement AI throughout our workflow.“
This was two days AFTER fucking up a major Ops meeting with the C-suite because instead of having our Lead Data Analyst pull the data he asked „his friend Copilot“ who hallucinate *every single number*.
AI absolutely can have a place as a *tool* in our industry and others but not if we keep selling it as a miracle to the lowest common denominator. *That’s* what’s making everyone dumber.

“CEOs are uniquely prone to AI psychosis because they’re sufficiently distant from the last mile of work that still has to happen to generate most value with AI,”
CEOs are wildly out of touch with the actual work that goes on in their companies, you say? Well, I never!

Well, CEOs are narcissists so of course they are losing their mind for the tool that was created to be sycophantic. So what we are seeing now is the AI bringing all these untreated mental issues afloat. lol. Destroyed by their creation.
