“Fuck them. And any “AI First” company. Do you think we forgot about “cloud first”? Or that Boeing is a “digital company that just happens to sell airplanes”?
Fucking hype chasing drooling brainwashed simpletons
Yes, actually, i dont, you don't, but "we" forget shit like this all day,.every day, all the fucking Time
Once this shit is over, most people will not have a single fucking clue what any of these fucking evil companies did.
Hell, even now, Facebook/ Instagram's meta is fucking the world, and most of their users are clueless while it's going on
Name me an (IT) consulting company which isn't pushing AI.
My god, the accountants who eventually have to clean up this mess will make so goddamn much money.
I'm sure they'll just hire another professional services company.
GDP economists hate this one weird trick!
Ah, yes, firing everyone that's not a sycophant. That always ends up well for any organisation. /s
It's also just generally a good barometer of a good idea. If people can't independently evaluate an idea and come to a similar conclusion on their own, it just means that you simply apply coercion and then you get to be right! It's excellent as a management practice which I'll note all the big 4 claim to offer...
So, hiring PwC is the same as using AI?
Yes, so you should ask for a big discount.
Not only that, from the article they are actively trying to become a Consultancy As A Service company, where somehow other companies would pay a subscription fee to.... talk to their AI, I guess?
The only time I've had to do with PWC, it was to get their advice on a compliance / tax related process. And it was less about the process itself or the 3 page pdf they produced (which much cheaper companies could have done better) and more because their "seal of approval" would give my company some leverage if the IRS had something against the process we implemented. "This was designed with PWC" means "we tried really really hard to do abide by the incredibly confusing wording of the law".
I doubt that "we asked PWC's chatbot" will have the same level of clout, but these guys have connections everywhere so I'm sure they will lobby pretty hard to get some ad-hoc law or some level of "certification" on the output of their future AI.
You must adhere to my religion or you will no longer be working for this company.
Oh shit, I applied to that company a few days ago. Guess I'll be telling them to fuck right off when they call back
Make them hire and then fire you. lol
Would be an option, firing someone after their trial period (usually 3 months) is over is an incredible pain in the ass around here lol
It's the biggest racketeering scheme in history and seems like everyone wants in
Well, it’s not like PwC does stuff where anally-retentive levels of accuracy and precision are required, so I can see why they’d be all for AI. /s
Deloitte and ~~Arthur Andersen~~ Accenture are saying the same things. Are KPMG and EY going the same route or looking for the market opportunity of “being correct” which I’ve heard is important in accountancy.
Accidenture
ftfy
Will age like milk
I'm so tired of seeing AI generated images of robots using computers
Can't wait for this to spoil in the fridge.
Well they had a good run
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
