Tech bros are salivating at the idea. The generation of tech bros that brought us the "disruption" of taxis and hotels, by not hiring staff but instead paying gig workers horribly, now found a way to also let go all other office staff.
I can't tell if they haven't thought through what that would mean for them themselves, or they're just not mentioning it to dupe investors.
Tech bros have been moving fast and breaking things since forever. AI just needs to be kinda OK at doing HR and accounting and other boring useless company jobs. If something goes wrong, it's just the VC money that's at stake. And the solution is more AI and more VC money.
