CEO Brags That He Gets "Extremely Excited" Firing People and Replacing Them With AI
A CEO who advises other CEOs on how to use AI to replace human jobs doesn't seem to be possessing a whole lotta guilt — or self-awareness.Frank Landymore (Futurism)

CEO is surprisingly unaware of how VC funding works.
They are going to ask for a pay rise, and they'll have you locked in.
The current leaders of the FBI have “no idea what they’re doing,” according to outgoing employees—and sustain a growing ideological loyalty to the Trump administration over a responsibility to serve the public.

in reply to Raphael Mimoun רפאל מימון • • •While 5 activists are being deported, the Adalah Justice Project says Chris and another activist, Hatem from Tunisia, are still detained. They are in overcrowded cells, with poor ventilation and no AC despite extreme summer heat, and their sleeping areas are infested with bedbugs.
They are confined in closed rooms all day, without fresh air or space to move.
