When you get sucked into a thing or obsess over it for a period of time, you start recommending it as the solution for everything. Everything is a nail and you hold the hammer. It also turns everything you say into a veiled marketing pitch. That’s what has happened with AI brain rot execs and the tech bros that follow them thinking they, too, will eventually be rich.
This person is so out of touch.
It’s so absurd that it doesn’t even sound like a real story.
I do appreciate LinkedIn because it helps surface how social bubbles distort perception.
That includes Fedi/Lemmy. This guy is painfully out of touch, but so is everyone else. That’s the entire problem of the unmoored, atomized media and interaction landscape we’ve built for ourselves this century.
I mean, I’m not excusing the guy, this was a pretty dumb post, but my first reaction to these is to wonder what dumb, unhinged assumptions my personal reality filters are inflicting on me that won’t make headlines, you know?
