Techdirt: CEOs who think AI replaces employees are just bad CEOs. The thread asks who's more replaceable (techdirt.com)
The case is that bosses cut staff because they can't see the unglamorous work that turns a demo into a product, then blame AI for layoffs that were really over-hiring.
Several commenters flipped it: if a job is just relaying information, the most replaceable role in the building is the CEO's.
A dissent worth keeping: by the only metric that judges CEOs — keeping shareholders happy — AI-driven cuts can be 'good' CEOship, which is the whole problem.
