The C-suite doesn't even understand what AI can proper do and what it can't.

99% of CEOs plan mass layoffs in the next two years

Fixed it for you

CEOs also have zero idea how AI/LLMs work. They are shockingly clueless.

What I think they're really saying is: 99% of CEOs expect to blame layoffs on AI in the next 2 years

I guess they missed the memo that AI is now more expensive than people.

Union busting is more expensive than unions but that doesn't matter to them either.

It was also more expensive for companies to issue return to office mandates in bulk, but they did that anyway.

That's before enshitification sets in and tech companies start jacking up prices and delivering a poorer service. "AI" will become more and more erratic as inputs become polluted with generated slop. The firehose of human knowledge will reduce and so the capabilities of LLMs. Golden age of "AI" is now

automation is inevitable.

The current capitalist system won't work in a plenty automated reality.

The bubble will pop, but automation will still come.

I suspect this is kinda like outsourcing which they similarly couldn't manage because they're bad at management.

If a human cannot make sense of your directives, how will a chatbot?
