Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I hope that every company that spends money on AI employees spends a lot of money on AI employees and then subsequently loses their shirts when they realize they're practically entirely useless on a business level And then they go bankrupt and the company selling them goes bankrupt because they can't sell garbage

Depends on the industry. If you're in an industry where your bottom line is sufficiently insulated from the quality of your goods or services, then you'll be fine! Just gotta be an illegal monopoly, or form illegal trusts to gain equivalent monopoly power, or benefit from regulatory capture.

Like, say, health insurance. What could go wrong?!

Or an isp, we'll soon be longing for the days when we got to talk to an at&t customer service rep.
