Sowing chaos is always a good strategy, when you need/want to disguise your action behind or among distractions. As to be reviled, some don't care, as long as they're feared.

What is really concerning (and enlightening) is that it is the CTO that's posting, and not the CEO. It shows that the topic is merely now considered as a technical point, rather than a principal-based one.

> 1. Entry level action: [...] (machines can do almost 100% of these tasks at this point) Haha, not even close. That's true if you take it in a very specific industrial bubble, where you do not _expect/instruct_ people to raise

But what about how the same professional workflows are gearing up to dismiss anything that has been visibly produced through GenAI tools (seen in HR and supply contracting, as well as in art commissions - and I don't see how it could n

Also helps: - taking a 30min walk in a break (before work, on lunch break, or after work). - drinking water (tea or tap flavoured with mint or lemon or other if it helps - 2l a day is a minimum target, preferably drink 1l in the early morni

Yes! And it comes down to hubris. Too many people (in finance, mostly - which drives the rest: entrepreneurs, "big" managers, etc.) in the industry (like to) think that maintenance is bad, because it's not new or growth-capab

It's all very contextual, and dependant on the framework you use (moral, ethical, business, customer, societal, etc.).

Gen AI feels more and more like NFTs and blockchains, and overall, a lot like pre-2001-bubble (or more accurately post y2k). A very exciting and expensive solution in search of an actual problem, that will ultimately find its way, commoditi

If energy is not the issue anymore, materials become the bottleneck. Earth is large, but finite. Mining becomes an even worse issue than oil (harder to find and extract; even more critical for empires to control). Maybe recycling metals eff

The root issue is the superior not having a clue. Sonar in this case, is sadly enabling this type of superior to be even more harmful, not to the developers only, but to the actual business of the company. And Sonar is far from being alone

I don't get it. If at some point, an employer only needs your avatar (AI-powered or not), one does not need you at all: automation took the position already. If _you_ need/use a ("clever") avatar of yourself to deduplica

It happens with executives whose compensation is unrelated to the company’s welfare (but rather to a custom agreement between them and the board/shareholders). As the OP notes in conclusion, saying it wouldn’t make a difference financi

You mean “breach of contractual obligation”, that is IF exclusivity is defined in the employment contract (it often is, especially when compensation is high). Theft is something else entirely.

This is where you’re mislead. It IS a recent theory in the face of human history (and even more prehistory). Those people were NOT smarter than you are, or can be. You’re terribly limiting yourself and your capacity for understanding and gr

Oh yes it is. Everything is a story. Some work somehow, some not. Sometimes it mostly depends on the context and the delivery rather than the truth of it. Supply/demand is also a story/theory trying to model, imperfectly, a realit

That was not my point. :) I know what this is used for. It's still ill-named (you don't sign it, it would be a "de facto" instead), and still debatable a theory (which states that in an ideal, invented state of nature, w

Are you saying that there's no difference in nature between physical and immaterial? Or that intellectual property and physical property are the same, with the same working principles, and follow the same rules?

That's a very peculiar understanding of what a contract is, and even of what the ill-named implicit "social contract" is. There's the law, that applies upon everyone in a society. There are treaties that try to make laws

Or maybe the similarities were just not in the perspective you expected? (two songs in widly distant genres/production styles can still be very similar on rythm, tonality, chords, tension, progression, structure, etc.)
