    At the cost of entry level jobs. So how exactly are future young workers supposed to gain the experience necessary for mid level jobs? Much of the ‘lack of employees’ that western companies currently complain of are a direct response to those very same companies stopping training of entry level employees 30-40 years ago. You often hear a 70-80 yo CEO brag about how they started in the mailroom and worked their way up. That isn’t possible now because companies expect all employees to already surpass the knowledge level needed for a job before they are hired, there is no company training provided.

    LLMs do not substantially improve productivity, and what they do produce is trash. They’re only ready to replace one demographic: the suits.

    So, seeing how nobody are willing to hire anybody for senior positions without prior experience, how will people get that experience without those entry level jobs and eventually gain access to that mythical 3-day workweek?

      seems they believe llms will get better soon by “learning” from current employees, and take over more complex tasks as well

      the talk of rewards is only meant as means to make everyone stay and do their best until replacements are ready

    Ah yes, Zoom — the company that squandered their pandemic-era near monopoly on video chat.

    I don’t think I’d be taking business advice from them.
