The fun part is that for some industries this will "work".
Not because the AI actually functions as a replacement for workers, but because a lot of companies have become bloated from aggressive hiring over the past few years.
So when things continue to function with the reduced staff they'll say how great the AI is. When in reality all that's going to happen is the employees that stay around will just be picking up more of the work again.
Hurray for out of touch CEOs!
