AI adoption in the workplace is deepening divisions and sparking new power struggles between leaders and workers, with half of executives saying that AI is "tearing their company apart," according to new research from Writer, the enterprise AI startup.

AI is predominantly funded by the rich to replace you.

Good thing it's terrible and will eat the resources of any business foolish enough to attempt to actually replace workers with it.

Time to move on to a different job then. AI isn't replacing anything that was all that meaningful as a career.

It is replacing things like "SEO writer" and "phone support person." There will always be a need for humans especially in places that involve working with other humans. The difference is there will be less of a focus on reading the script and more of a focus on being a empathic human. Once the market catches on that AI can't replace us all the market will pop and there will be a bunch of lay offs before it goes back to normal.

Good. Anything to help destroy capitalism I am 100% on board with.

When massive amounts of "executives", managers, white collar workers along with middle and lower class jobs all start being replaced, shits gonna get crazy and gonna have to change. When the people with luxury who are used to having luxury start losing it, I think it'll just get really interesting...

Bring on the AI for everything.

AI is not the end of capitalism, it’s just here to squeeze people more for yet some more juicy profits. AI is a tool of capitalism

The whole idea with AI is that it would make means of production inaccessible for any of the smaller players. Good thing LLMs are terrible, have little room to improve and capitalists are just burning money rather than gaining an advantage. Bad thing we could have been building hospitals and schools with that money.

AI is mostly riding on hype and broken dreams
