Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I've been working up a proper sneer about this for a little while now. The real service that AI provides is that the managers who implement it get increased psychic distance from the people being exploited to power their profits. It's sociopathy as a service; the exploitation still happens, but you no longer have to bear the burden of looking them in the eyes to deny their PTO request or tell them to clean out their desk.
