A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Turn up the car radio,
I picture us dancing slow,
With the lights down low,
And I’m holding you,
Aw, it feels alright.
It should be this way every night.

Nov. 8, 1971: Led Zeppelin released their untitled 4th album, a.k.a. “IV.”
No title, just four symbols and pure rock perfection — “Black Dog,” “Rock and Roll,” and of course, “Stairway to Heaven.” 🎸

Considering there is a detailed YouTube tutorial on how to correctly do every single task on earth, you would think we would be living in a golden age of human competence. However I am starting to worry that this is not the case
