They pay these people almost nothing, and they still want to replace them. To become a Billionaire in the first place you are going to be far more likely to have negative psychological traits. That's how they get to where they get to.
Quote: Psychology’s “Dark Triad” and the Billionaire Class Machiavellianism The first trait of the Dark Triad — Machiavellianism — refers to one’s willingness to deceitfully manipulate and exploit people and circumstances for personal gain. In an illuminating series of studies, psychologists have found that this tendency is more common among those with greater wealth and status. Psychopathy The second component of the Dark Triad — psychopathy — refers to a person’s lack of empathy toward others and a tendency to behave in a callous and uncaring manner toward them. Here too, research by psychologists supports the view that, compared to their “lower-class” counterparts, “upper-class” individuals act with less compassion — and also fall short on certain basic skills necessary for building positive connections with other people. Narcissism The third trait of the Dark Triad — narcissism — refers to an individual’s sense of superiority over other people and convictions about personal entitlement to special treatment. Once again, in a diverse set of psychological studies, individuals of higher social class displayed greater levels of narcissism and entitlement than did their less wealthy counterparts. These are the people we are hoping will be nice to us, when we collectively no longer have any leverage over them. Not saying it's gonna happen, but it's interesting to think about. Quote: Right now tech corporations are using "AI" as an excuse to further downsize staff and cut expensive operational costs in preparation for the upcoming bubble popping. Most tech companies (or even game companies) are not proper companies, they do not function based off profits. They function based on funding rounds (Discord, Reddit, Open AI etc), they effectively just keep begging for money from mega wealthy people and using snakeoil salesman tactics to get money to fund the company well beyond their means. Many of these companies make zero profits. Open AI did vast funding rounds and raised huge amounts of money, and with that money they agreed to buy up 40% of the worlds ram to lock out competitors for instance. A corporate espionage tactic, funded by money they could not make themselves (they are currently imploding). This is why they were hiring so many people 5+ years ago, and why these companies are full of people literally doing nothing (you see endless women on tiktok working at tech companies in manufactured jobs, making videos about doing nothing and eating avocado and drinking starbucks). Cause the inflated work force implied growth and people invested cause of the implied growth from the bloated workforce (this is also why they have so much DEI of incompetent people, cause they don't do anything to matter and it helped gain investor money). The are now downsizing with AI for the same reason, to pander to investors that AI is the future that they are embracing and that will improve the value of the company long-term. However, ones making profits and not begging for money are actually doing it for real reasons. |
