I can't tell if they haven't thought through what that would mean for them themselves, or they know it's BS but it's still good for marketing.

Tech bros have been moving fast and breaking things since forever. AI just needs to be kinda OK at doing HR and accounting and other boring useless company jobs. If something goes wrong, it's just the VC money that's at stake. And the solution is more AI and more VC money.
