X1 dev, X1 designer, e2 manager, etc. You can autoscale your company through jira integration.
You will save on health insurance, benefits, unproductive time, salaries etc. Only aws will need to cover that but those employees can work and scale for hundreds of companies monthly.
You can have your own college and production line for people out of school so you can grade.
- illirik 6y ago"dev", "designer", "manager", etc. aren't interchangeable machines in the same way that compute instances are; they're human beings! Would you personally work for this "AWS for employees", with no job security, with no consistent working relationships with other people, with no knowledge of why you are doing the things you are tasked besides "the algorithm said I must do it, so I do it"? I know I wouldn't. Fortunately, this is a horrible idea that has essentially zero chance of becoming reality, as things like stable work relationships and a sense of purpose boost productivity, making employees more productive per unit labor cost than a Mechanical Turk for making more Mechanical Turks.
- joquarky 6y agoThis sounds like the story Manna [1] by Marshall Brain. In the first half of the story, employees are increasingly micro-managed by a centralized software program which becomes more sophisticated and ubiquitous over time until humanity becomes fungible.
