Nvidia CEO Begs Execs to Stop Telling Workers They're Fired Because of AI, it's hurting Nvidia's stock price.
It's also a lie. LLMs can't replace a single worker, and most CEOs know that, they are using it as an excuse to cover up the consequences of mismanagement and/or increase short term profits at the expense of future growth.
Saying you're doing layoffs lowers stock price. Saying you're replacing workers and stocks might even go up. It's a pretty big incentive if your pay package depends on the stock price.
What is this magical place where saying you do layoffs lowers the stock price. I'd like to go there.
The real world apparently. But if your company is far enough in la-la land and the disconnect between profit and reality is big enough, weird things happen.
If a big part of the market is floating in la-la land then that's a good impression of Wile E. Coyote before he looks down.
A pathological liar is begging other pathological liars to stop lying about people being fired due to the lying machine...
Crazy times we are living in.
I really hope AI ends up replacing CEOs and upper management.
I appreciate the sentiment (Fuck CEOs) but find the idea of taking orders from an AI that is also in charge of steering the direction of the company devastatingly horrific.
I'm torn, because fuck the ceos... but fuck the ai... I don't want to take orders from some slopshit robot, nor these rapist criminals
Why? The AI would be a step up from the avg CEO. I mean, it’s a low looooow bar, but incremental progress is still progress
~imma throw in this is a joke, cause I know someone isn’t gonna take it that way~
Hope you like making paperclips while Clippy watches you and ratchets up your productivity expectations, buddy.
~also a joke, but an AI with surveillance capabilities has the potential to be a really annoying boss. See Amazon drivers that aren't allowed to wipe their brow while they drive or take a pee break~
Hey there skipper! Looks like your meatbag fingers are getting tired! That 1% decrease In speed is coming out of your paycheck!
I lowkey believe that tbh. I'm open to having my mind changed though.
Let's rage against all the machines
Rapist criminals
Damn, no chill.
I have a sudden craving for Huang Pow Chicken.
He finally took off that stupid leather jacket
He’s getting a new one made of human skin.
Whoever gets to wear his skin is going to look amazing, à la that scene in Tropic Thunder with Ben Stiller. 
Imagine it.
Can’t help but laugh after imagining the finished product lol
The real indicator of global warming.
Is it because he wants to wait until he has robots to hunt them down and kill them instead ?
