What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines

MODERATORS
The only thing that matters is creating value for the share-holder (this is how public corporations work). If you can convince the share-holders that AI can perform the job better than executives, they will demand executives and their board of directors be replaced on the spot. Share-holders care about one thing, maximizing returns on investment. They will never favour the average employee as they see them as red numbers on the balance sheet. All the employees need to do is buy up all the shares and they can make this happen. Pretty unlikely scenario unfortunately, but one can dream.
Should change its name to Slopify
Yet another company down the drain
All these CEO's are getting cold calls from OpenAI, sitting through a 30 minute high pressure sales pitch that tells them they can do 3x the work with 1/3 the staff for a small monthly fee that scales with work done and they're all slobbering to buy it.
Most bigger tech companies are bureaucratic nightmares already, where nothing productive can get achieved no matter how many people you throw at it. AI will only make them more efficient at bullshit.
