Gen Z faces ‘job-pocalypse’ as global firms prioritise AI over new hires, report says
(www.theguardian.com)
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
It's just going to lead to a quiet job hiring boom they'll try and hide over the next few years. AI can't do shit. They'll spend $10 trying to make it work and failing, for every $1 they would spend on a human. But modern day corporate culture is mental, so we must just watch another CEO who doesn't know what he or she is doing make a bunch more demented decisions, and pocket several more millions. All for having a job with no consequences whatsoever.
And in the mean time, abject poverty for anyone not already in a secure position! I'm sure there won't be any consequences to this action!
