I honestly don’t believe it. I think they’re laying people off to mislead investors into thinking the AI can do their jobs, because that’s an enormous amount of expenses that would be cut, and thus an enormous increase in profits, if it were true.
We’re in a huge recession, masked by inflated stock numbers.
Very few businesses are doing good, unless they’re sucking investor money via AI promises.
Yeah, I’ve seen a number of articles talking about how if a company isn’t doing well and needs to do layoffs that it’s a better narrative for investors that savings were found via AI. Then it’s not a “company is doing poorly” story, but a “company is forward-thinking” one.
Like, there are real layoffs that have happened and are induced by AI, but I’d also be pretty confident in saying that it’s not all of the ones where leadership is citing AI.
Right, reality is much more nuanced than „attributed to AI“. It‘s employers claiming they replaced them with AI without showing us the actual numbers as proof. Likely because they don‘t have any.
But while AI posters, Websites or even emails and spreadsheets might‘ve looked flashy to the untrained eye at first, they quickly started to look generic. It‘s overloaded, nothing sticks out and nobody cares.
Don‘t even get me started on AI generated videos that are still just slop or vibe code that may look stupidly productive at first but may turn out to be impossible to maintain in the long run. Especially when the few AI companies that survive the crash want to make some serious money.
Yup. This is the plan. This is also incomprehensible amount of wealth voting to upend the current world order. To all of the OLD MONEY … you better wake up, they will slaughter you soon after us.
