CEOs also have zero idea how AI/LLMs work. They are shockingly clueless.

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

I guess they missed the memo that AI is now more expensive than people.
That's before enshitification sets in and tech companies start jacking up prices and delivering a poorer service. "AI" will become more and more erratic as inputs become polluted with generated slop. The firehose of human knowledge will reduce and so the capabilities of LLMs. Golden age of "AI" is now
for now
until the bubble pops
automation is inevitable.
The current capitalist system won't work in a plenty automated reality.
The bubble will pop, but automation will still come.
Union busting is more expensive than unions but that doesn't matter to them either.
It was also more expensive for companies to issue return to office mandates in bulk, but they did that anyway.
It won't always be. We're nowhere near out of the woods here.
I suspect this is kinda like outsourcing which they similarly couldn't manage because they're bad at management.
If a human cannot make sense of your directives, how will a chatbot?
99% of CEOs plan mass layoffs in the next two years
Fixed it for you
The C-suite doesn't even understand what AI can proper do and what it can't.
