My theory is that C-suites are actually using "AI efficiency gain" as an excuse for laying off workers without scaring the shareholders.
"I didn't lay off 10% of the workforce because the company is failing. It's because... uhmmmm... AI! I have replaced them with AI! Please give us more money."
Exactly. I would print this on a shirt if I still had to take meetings with those clowns.
That's why I think the logical step is to replace C-suites with AI -- CAI
