    They’re gonna realize the two jobs it can actually replace is HR and the C suite.

      And neither of those two groups will allow themselves to be replaced.

        Yeah, HR gets by because of legal compliance, and execs get by through convincing the board to give them X years, and then jump to the next one.

      Lol AI cannot replace either of those jobs. “I’m sorry I can’t help with your time off request but here is a gluten free recipe for a pie that feeds 30 people.”

        You’re right, that sounds better than the average HR rep.

        “Help” with a time-off request?

        Here’s the help:

        Sure!

        It won’t replace any jobs entirely, it will just reduce the number of people needed for each job.

        Not that there’s much difference if you’re the one being made redundant.

        I bet project managers could be replaced with AI super easily, I mean all they have to do is respond to all messages with 👍

          Then you don’t have good project managers.

          At least then the project plan would get updated and tasks opened on time…
