    Reality bites. So companies are paying workers a salary to do the needed work. The workers are then having AI do the work, at added cost. Bonus: the work quality is greatly reduced.

    This is such a monumental shitshow, even I can’t predict the fallout. On the plus side, we’ll be able to pickup data center hardware for dirt cheap and it will be the dawn of a new hacking age where people try to get the hardware running at home to play GTA6. Do I really need 10PB of storage? For $100, why not?

      They're management consultants--how are you supposed to be able to tell if the work quality is reduced?

        With all the jokes about consultants, they actually do quite important work and don't just create powerpoints or layoffs like people thing.
