Imagine if behind-the-scenes they were and the rise of AI was actually fuelling itself? A most disturbing prospect

    If you really want to hate executives, just remember: This is how they’ve been making decisions for decades.

    Find the yes-men, huff farts until the new quarterly numbers roll in, turn thumbscrews on the plebs to actually make profits, keep the profits, repeat.

    They’ve merely digitized the yes-men.

      Yeah but there’s a slight difference between asking a moron yes-man with an actual brain, and asking a shit-as-fuck mindless ‘bot’. Maybe not much of a difference I admit, but a difference nonetheless

        Ehhhhh… you’d be surprised at what cowardly fucks will say yes to!

        Let’s just say fucking their wife is very much not a hyperbolic joke amongst politicians and executives alike…

        They only want their jollies off (big paycheck in many cases), and literally do not understand the consequences, and more importantly… they enjoy not having to admit direct guilt when everything turns tits up.
