ironically I think that the only job that LLMs could effectively replace right now, without hurting a company’s bottom line, would be upper managers

because think about it: LLMs are fantastic at taking in a fuckton of data that they don’t understand, and confidently producing output that sounds really smart and insightful but has no substance whatsoever. that’s literally an upper manager’s entire job description

@kasdeya why do you think so many upper managers are so fond of it, even insistent that it might meet the standards of personhood? it was made in their image — progeny they trust not to turn on them
