It's time to get concerned about Forbes. As a journalistic standard I would've expected to read about all the jobs some of these companies created during pandy times. There's been a trend towards layoffs long before OpenAI burst onto the scene. Also everybody is going to espouse the same streamlining bullshit in their PR even if layoffs are business-driven and not so much AI's fault. A best of press releases is not good enough journalism.

It's also not critical by reporting on some of the failures of the pivots to AI that have made the rounds.

New technology displaces workers in some areas and eventually creates demand in others. For time immemorial. All of this has happened before, all of this will happen again. That's why I regret having driven traffic to the Forbes website to be able to read this.

Forbes lets any asshole write for them, and the clickbait always wins. It’s basically ad-supported Medium now.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
