    I think it’s a giant billboard sign that if they can replace you, they will. It was good for the tech bros to see this.

        Someone quoted this above and I replied there too, but this shows how they really think about the situation:

        "We assumed the technology was further along than it actually was,” one executive said privately

        They don’t regret firing people, they regret not being able to replace them with AI

      I hole heartedly believe my company would have replaced everyone in my department with remote workers from India if government regulations didn’t require US citizenship or qualified people. What I mean by qualified I don’t necessarily mean their quality of work but government regulations that require certificates and licenses to do the work.

      So I guess AI will be after my job very soon
