Translated for the rest of us:

“You working-class chum will be unquestioning servants, and you’ll be grateful for it!”

If anything, it’s the other way around: we have an AI-company PR problem. Media outlets can’t stop themselves from presenting interviews with CEOs of AI companies as some sort of reliable source for how incredible AI really is if we would only spend more money locking ourselves into AI-driven workflows.

The rich who benefit from this don’t care. They have enough wealth that it doesn’t matter. We could all be starving to death, fighting each other scraps of bread in the street, and they’d believe we deserve it.

If anything, that would drive prices down so they could build their next vacation home for pennies on the dollar.

Don’t worry, you’ll still get shit on by your manager. Probably even harder than now:

The restaurant-level analytics, which Yum refers to as Accelerated Restaurant Intelligence, will be used to create action plans for restaurant managers at struggling locations, using best practices from stronger-performing units.

They’ll be sending your human boss AI generated plans that may or may not have been successful at a totally different location, that they’ll have to try to make work. And make no mistake, this will end up in every location, not just “struggling” ones.

Which ones have you guessing? It feels a little insane to read compared to the standard 2 letter abbreviation, but they’re all pretty clear to me.
