A future where we don't have jobs so the rich can make more money by selling us stuff? But I won't have money to pay for stuff! Hmmm!
All MBAs and CEOs are like puppies chasing their own tails.
They want the growth because number go up good. They’ll do anything for number go up. And when number go up, they get the good and then they need to focus on next number go up.
They have no long term plan other than number go up. For the next few quarters, they can slap AI on anything and number go up. What happens if AI takes all the non manual labor jobs? Or if it turns out AI is useless and they wasted billions on snake oil? They don’t know, cause they were thinking about number go up right now, not number go up later.
Our economy is a farce.
and so goes the ouroboros of late stage capitalism until we are back to feudalism
It's fine, because even though the CEO eventually drives the company into the ground in pursuit of indefinite growth over long-term stability, that accomplishment is no deterrent to getting hired at another company to do it again. The idea of companies with a long-term vision and plan that provides employees with stability and a career is dead.
The real reason is they want enough money pumped into AI so someone can automate fascism.
That's seriously the plan
Fucking clown world
