American and Chinese AIs telling European managers to fire the best workers.
Makes sense.
Nonsensical decisions that sound reasonable yet miss the point are the hallmark of most managers, and LLMs are really good at that
Plus they can always blame the AI for their bad decisions
“I’m not a racist, the magic box that said all the brown employees are performing badly and should be fired”
I would not be surprised if the AI companies were botting these surveys as a way to boost demand for their products.
Cool! So why not replace 60% of managers with AI?
For all those pointless meetings, you could just put a cardboard cutout at a table, hook up a speaker, and have an AI voice read out the output — maybe even with a cloned version of Steve Carell’s voice so it sounds like Michael Scott from “The Office.”
60% of managers could be replaced with a Magic 8-Ball.
Sounds like a shitty manager.
It shouldn’t impact us that much, it’s just a different kind of lottery.
