Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

based and solidarity pilled, thank you executive comrades
God, it'd be so funny if a BoD fires their CEO to replace them with an LLM
Even if that happens, it's not the win one might think it is. The capitalist economy serves capital, not CEOs. CEOs are just the best-paid servants of capital. They, especially founders, get a lot of capital themselves but conflating the two is an error and, in our era, largely a consequence of the rise of tech. A generation or so in, we're seeing that the incredibly rich CEOs can step down without pausing the harm their companies cause. Nadella owns 0.01% of Microsoft. That's $339 million, so not paltry by any means unless you're comparing it to Gates' or even Ballmer's stakes. Still, we haven't seen Microsoft shift into non-shittiness and won't see that under a pivot to AICEOs that survive on electricity and newsfeeds alone. The problem will still be capitalism, even if it doesn't have a head to cut off.
I really wanted to submit my idea of automating our c-suite's roles to 'boost financial metrics' to our anonymous suggestion box
Looks like I might not have to do that at all
