That’s a plain and simple admission that you are incompetent at your job. You should resign not post puff pieces at FT…
I feel like the only job AI would be better suited at would be CEO.
Luis von Ahn says criticism over strategy change shows ‘anxiety’ about technology replacing jobs
Motherfucker, you’re the one that fired slews of employees to be replaced by text-prediction algorithms. It’s not “anxiety”, you’re fucking doing it.
Way to reinforce the stereotype, out-of-touch rich dude. Most people who actually work for a living see no benefit from AI, and resent it being shoved into every single product, whether it makes sense or not. Oh well, at least you can burn boatloads of VC money while also destroying the environment and abusing intellectual property to train it!
It’s hardly surprising that these people are out of touch when they’re constantly surrounded in a bubble of yes-men, cultish AI sycophants, VC investors and other “dark enlightenment” enthusiasts.
It’s a pathology, really. A kind of shared delusion in service of global capital.
CEOs are overall just not smart and we need to stop that belief
Is there really a single person of this belief, after the whole HBO name-change stupidity? That is still among the worst business and branding decisions I have ever seen.
I would argue that it is one of the most deeply held American beliefs even if it’s not talked about openly. Successful people are almost always viewed as intelligent by default. Despite all evidence to the contrary.
People STILL call Elon a genius ffs
“Well if they are so dumb why do they have so much money???”

As usual tech obsessives are completely disconnected from the general population.
shows ‘anxiety’ about technology replacing jobs
No, it’s because over the last few years you’ve made your app progressively worse and worse. Almost the entire time I’ve been using this app I’ve seen it get worse and worse. And it’s clear that your push for AI has made it a more boring way to learn.

Of course he didn’t expect the blowback. All of the CEOs are in their own little worlds trying to figure out how to make money off of AI. They’re all taking their personal money and investing heavily in AI corporations, so they’re all very pro AI and couldn’t understand why your average person who is pretty sure it’s going to make their life worse through jobs or other means would be anti-AI.
CEOs are rich enough to live in their own delusional bubble. They are very out of touch with the average person, or their own workforce. This is nothing new.
Because ceos habe lost all their touch with reality (if they ever had any)
Still not installing it, Luis.
