I thought this article might have been on bullshit jobs in the tech industry but it's not. Are their bullshit jobs in the tech industry?

  Yeah, building POCs to make people above you look good to their seniors.

  Adtech

    I might be completely wrong here as I've never worked in adtech, but the field seems like a really weird mix of bullshit jobs (the kind David Graeber wrote about), snakeoil, adtech that actually works as advertised, but still feels bad to work on because it's mostly harmful to society, and adtech that's actually legit and ethically neutral.

  Plenty of it. Who do you think is writing all the comments about how copilot can easily make them redundant, for example.
