AI replacement of CEOs is brilliant. Replace your most expensive employees. CEOs hallucinate so much on their own no one will even notice it’s an LLM. Let the bodies hit the floor!

How on earth did he overwhelmingly pass leadership review? It’s a mystery to me.
I have a theory that fits the data surisingly well. Poilievre is recognized throughout the party as one of the few with the oratorical skills to flood the Liberals with their favourite brand of hollow, vaccuous critique in parliament and in the media. Simultaneously, he is one of the rare few who can mask his ghoulishness, unlike almost everyone else who goes mask off if they open their maws.
The last strong leader the conservatives had was Stephen Harper. Harper’s political superpower was that he got the party to shut the fuck up. He was a control freak who made most communications flow from his office only. In the rare and unavoidable instance where anybody did speak publicly the messages were short, carefully pre-scripted pieces design to stay locally relevant and not embarrass with national escalation. Avoiding the stuff that plays fine locally, but turns off the public regionally and nationally.
Everyone in the conservatives wants to express their mask off maga chud rhetoric. Only tiny pp can keep the mask on.


I’m sorry, that was way too much hypocrisy to swallow for very long.
Hearing Bolton talk about investment not flowing into Venezuela because it wasn’t a rule of law country made me throw up in my mouth a little.
Hearing Rice talk about regime change being justified because its unpopular and hostile to its people made swallowing the vomit in my mouth less distasteful than swallowing her narrative.
I couldn’t even get past Iran to see if they had anything intelligent to say on the title of the talk. There is so little self-awaress in these ghouls it smacks of the pride before the fall.

This is exactly the S-Tier business move I’ve been calling for all along. The most impactful places for AI automation are the c-suite. Think about it! The most expensive employees. Mostly useless and performative. They “hallucinate” at least as much as LLMs. It’s the perfect place.
It also has proven business parallels. Remember when EVs started. Car companies struggled to break into markets with low end, eco & cost conscious models. EVs kicked into high gear with the high margin performance models like Tesla S. The high margins justified the production costs and only as they gradually refined the technology and scaled up did the costs go down to fit successively lower markets.
Zuckerberg gunning for the Global C-Suite is exactly what McKinsey&Co would advise complete with entirely predictable distrous consequences for anyone even remotely involved. We’re entering a new era - This bad-boy right here is kicking off what historians will refer to as The Second Corporate Wars. I approve. Let the bodies hit the floor.


What if “burning cash” wasn’t a metaphor? The grift collects cash. Then there is a pit surrounded by stones and a significant pyre?


Let me put this into my trusty Hyper-Normalization translator:
Wrrr…bizzt…click…click…blu-blu…ding!
“The circus is refining their act to adjust to an audience who is bored of business as usual. The clowns are being replaced with a freak show comprised of shit-eaters, geeks who bite the heads of chickens and a bearded lady whose beard is ZZ Top grade but the beard in on their ballsack. The lion show have reversed the roles and now one lion tames a group of ravenous trainers and makes them do tricks. The mime has been supplemented with pickpockets in the audience.”


Bad faith. Grow up.


If you stoped repeating the same mistakes over and over again and tried to think “where could this be right” instead of " find a wrong, even a stretch that doesn’t belong and disprove" you would be a more reasonable person to talk to.
E.g. (clearly needed here)
You think the rarity of Bill Gates disproves my point. I say a friend who is neurodivergent and a high school drop out literally just bought cleaning supplies and started going door to door to businesses on a strip asking if they needed a good scrubbing. He did a few gigs on the spot for pocket change, but quickly found several of the 2nd story offices were displeased with their after-hours cleaning contractors. A few offered a trial to prove my dude could do a good job. Once proven they offered annual contracts. The landlords and tenants all talk to each other and word got around. Boom! Entrepreneur. Today he has 3 vans and 7 employees. Still doesn’t know what standard deviation is.
This type of opportunity is everywhere. It’s not the kind that is offered. It’s the kind you find or make yourself. The biggest barrier to entry here is not trying. I could go on all day. But why? The point is made and you’ll either get it, or not.


As long as my right to destroy is intact, it’s deplorable, but manageable.


2 in 10 Europeans are stupid and/or Chinese/American.


None of what you say is wrong. Statistically speaking you’re making two mistakes:

You are overemphasizing what is the primary path for most and concluding that everything else should be excluded. Why cut someone struggling from 31.46% of the jobs that don’t fit the optimal 1st standard distribution?
It literally isn’t as rare as you think. I know a great many overeducated and unemployed as well as a great many high-school dropouts that are Entrepreneurs, Sr Consulting Software Architects and Successful Artists.
When someone is struggling, consider the normal path might be why. A broader approach that doesn’t prejudice viable alternatives for the crime of being “not the most popular option” is prefferrable.


You misunderstand. If we get impossibly bright light fireworks, I don’t want to shield myself from them. Considering what comes next, I want to walk drunkenly stumble into the light and be free.


This is good. But “need” is perhaps too strong. Lots of highly successful people without education. Lots of highly educated people who couldn’t cut it. Plus it too has barriers of it own (costs, loansharking student loans)
It’s good, but isn’t the only way.

Have you considered the “other” economy?
It’s really about understanding yourself. What are your needs? What are your natural strengths? When you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.

Edit: A seriously helpful answer that ties into this. I’ve worked closely with retail executives. It’s awful for you on purpose. Their business model is built on low barrier to entry and suffering. You are right to stay away. My above joke was not only meant to be funny. Who doesn’t need a giggle at times like this? But it was also to get you to think in different ways. Making a living is not the same as getting a job with an employer. That’s only one way, and it often sucks. Think entrepreneurship (non-criminal). Think lemonade stand. Not as stupid an idea as it sounds - Martha Stewart got started selling pies outside a plaza. Lateral thinking can help you here. Get outside of your own assumptions and consider a broader perspective.


US military is poised to TACO Tuesday!
Or
Enter Player 4 - China has joined the game!
I love a good taco, but I also have a lawnchair and case of beer ready in case we kick of WWIII and I want to watch the impossibly bright lights.

And the band played on
As the helicopters whirred

“No Kings but the Burger King™” could get traction.


My chicky nuggies! ReeeeeeeeEEEEEEeeeee
I have no idea how to even try to tackle this. But this is one of the best “no stupid questions” in a long while. Not only, is it not stupid, it’s inspired. Complex yet impractical, thus perfectly suited to this sub. Bravo!
