I look forward to the day that AI slop is embarrassing for executives. We're at an inflection point for the herd mentality moment where they're dreaming of mass layoffs. When AI proves incapable of delivering ROI the wave will roll back.


Did we get any embarrassment from all the 2000s outsourcing that went to the cheapest sweatshop, and then slowly rolled back when they realised that you need to have expertise?

Thinking that you can do this without skills has been here before, and it'll come around again after the executives take the money and run.
