"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

C-suite is always clueless, and C-suite gets no consequences for their ineptitude.

If I were a shareholder, I'd be pushing my fellow shareholders to replace the inept.

How would you ever do that? Salesforce's major shareholders are primarily large institutional investors, plus the founder and CEO himself. I can't imagine how you'd be able to push them to do anything at all, even if you were a major shareholder yourself.

You are right. Just one more problem with a system owned by corporations, I guess.
