If Gartner comes out with a decent AI model, you could replace over half of your CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, etc. Most of them lack any real leadership qualities and simply parrot what they're told/what they've read. They're their through nepotism.

Also, most of them use AI as a crutch, so that's all they know. Meanwhile, the rest of us use it as a tool (what it's meant to be).

Yup. The owners can save a lot of money on those paychecks.

I think that they will. Much like tech workers who had no interest in unions because they thought that they were aligned with the owners, management is going to have a rude awakening and learn that if you don't own the company then you are just labor.

Lol. That's not how class solidarity works, but I do hope youre right.

Christ, if you think a CTO is hard to deal with, wait until you have to interface with the AI CTO.

As long as i can prompt-engineer my way into twice the salary for half the hours, that might still be worth it!
