Nerds fascinated by their one intellectual trick are like religious people trying to sell their particular fairy tale and getting doors slammed in their faces.
Just go away and shut up and keep that nonsense to yourself.
“We’ve released this feature which works 80% of the time and which we feel morally obligated to tell you can install malware, or simply send all your files to a malicious actor. Why aren’t you jizzing yourselves?”
If he thinks the reaction was people not being impressed then it shows that CEOs are psychopaths who can’t relate to normal people.

Same energy as when they pushed Kinect and Cortana as the future of computers.
"Why don't people like our user surveillance systems? they're so impressively good at invading your privacy!"

a fucking newspaper guy, why they write about AI so much, you think ?
I must be ceo material. I use this same type of argument when my partners seem unimpressed with my sexual performance.

Doesn't understand the company's customers at all, sounds like maybe he's not cut out to be CEO. Also, yeah, I'm not impressed by your agentic BS that your own company is already warning may install malware.

It just isn't impressive and not worth the trade of damage to the planet. Writing some emails or something fine. But vibe coding and it being sold as this living learning machine is just sci-fi isn't true with current AI. Find some green way to power it or remove it from society at this point before it gets worse.
What is really impressive, is how people in this day and age of connection, are still able to be so out of touch.

"I have a radical business strategy: Fuck our customers, and fuck what they want. It's going to be great. They'll love it. Or else."
20 years ago I would have been excited: when Microsoft made Clippy to try and help people. Now we know you created this to harvest data.
I'm mind-blown that people feel no shame when data harvesting from computer illiterates, or programmers who write anti-features (like forced online accounts for a local OS).
Of course, tech CEOs are just gaslighting us to get those last AI bubble dollars. But there can be a legitimate argument made here too.
It's a classic trap many software and game developers fall into, where they keep adding more and more features to their product/service. At some point it becomes bloat and nobody uses the new features, but from the dev's perspective they are improvements. If only corporations ever cared about user feedback and not shareholder feedback.
