Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Cory Doctorow makes a similar point in that if the execs didn't show up for work not a whole lot would change. If the workers didn't show up nothing would get done. The C-Suite chuds deep down know this and hate it and LLMs are sold to these people under the false premise that they can be execs who matter because they can fire these pesky workers and replace them with AI which runs under the direction of the execs, making them relevant and saving money.
Of course, it's a crock of shit but the AI companies are happy to sell this dream.
