Anecdotally, it happens that I used to have frequent, close interactions with a boomer executive who loved AI. From what I could tell, he used it extensively for his own job which appeared to primarily be vibes-based nonsense to begin with. This bled over into the rest of his predictably vibes-based nonsense life, where he'd use ChatGPT to come up with political talking points to break out at lunch or help decide what junk to put in his next twice-weekly Amazon order. There was this time where I overheard him talking on the phone to his nephew who had been struggling with depression and he said something like "have you considered talking to ChatGPT about this?"
Anyway, the point being that these executives seem to live very vibes-based, consequence-free lives to begin with so of course they never see a downside to AI.
