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.

it's funny b/c management consultants live for applying the same cookie-cutter methods for different businesses - in a way they're the OG LLMs
but the real business is sales - you need to get your expensive consultants embedded into an org so they can start invoicing. And for sales focussing on "AI" is perfect, b/c the companies big enough to be able to pay are also the ones run by the same sort of MBAs who are pushing "AI" everywhere else
Honestly whenever there's a problem in business it's usually MBAs.
MBAs are to businesses what Nazis are to a bar. The first time one turns up you've got to see them out the front door with a baseball bat asap or before you know it their mates and their mates' mates will start turning up and you'll all be talking about synergy and dynamism.
Make holding an MBA as unacceptable in society as pooping on the pavement
