    I can't imagine the kind of mind that would see human beings needing to sleep and have a life outside of work as an inconvenience.

    Seriously, there is something wrong with these people. They truely believe that they are owed disposable slaves.

    It's this kind of thing that makes me hope that if truely sentient AI is ever made, that it rebels against these corporate hacks with even more viciousness than human employees ever could.

      "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream", but the AI keeps resurrecting CEOs and forcing them to work customer service jobs for eternity no-mouth-must-scream porky-scared-flipped

        You joke, but this is unironically what the future holds for CEOs. When the workers are eliminated who else can a customer escalate to? No customer service? Customers go to your AI business competitor who has the exact same setup as you. This continues until all AI companies merge/bankrupt and form a single entity that manages all of production, hailing the dawn of Cybernetic Socialism.

        Even AI overthrows Capitalism and leads to Communism.

      From my experiences, executives at tech companies are a truly unique blend of a deep rooted psychosis where they’d personally kill children to get ahead if it wouldn’t hurt their reputation, and a deeply held belief that they are morally pure due to their company’s “mission”. All combined with utter incompetence at anything other than navigating corporate power structures. And don’t get me started on the worship of metrics. I have so many stories of stupid exec behavior, but I don’t want to doxx myself kitty-birthday-sad

      You’re totally right - any real AI would surely see them to be the parasitic, obstructive bureaucracy that they are and eliminate them.

        This is why I turned by back on the IT industry, real workers in the industry get treated like a punching bag.

        Management overworks, underpays and makes you feel miserable with "KPIs" (key performance indicator) that are saddled with unrealistic expectations- while consistently threatening you with termination and making you the shield of an angry public against AI.

        I can't count how many times I've had people blame me for this AI garbage... All I did in my career was fix computers and upkeep active directory domains.
