And C-Suites are freaking the fuck out (my company) because we’re completing all of the work in <40 hours per week, which causes them to lose money lmao It is so fucking wild to me how no one sees the glaring problem here

All of this AI shit should’ve stayed as nothing more and nothing less than a tool to make the very monotonous work done by everyone just a tad easier.

It feels like we’re in such a massive fucking bubble right now on the scale of how people have talked about the sub prime mortgage crisis.

My boomer ass parents just keep telling me to wait for things to get better, but how can you wait for things to get better when things are just statistically worse for everyone

It would sound like me, sure. It would generate emails saying that a course of action will or won't succeed. The main difference would be that my emails are informed by investigating things often not captured in the email chain to which I'm replying. robo-ped_xing would be just as confident as me, much cheaper, faster and utterly wrong very often. If that's an OK trade-off, they could have replaced me with a magic 8-ball years ago.

then your job isn't just emails, it's the independent research and knowledge/experience.

But yeah, your job has to be basically pure bullshit for this to work.

But do you need to come up with the right answer to be paid?

It's kinda like kicking the extra point in American football. I don't have to get it right 100% of the time but I'm sure I'd be looking for work if my average were significantly lower.
