Talked to a few Director+ folks at “traditional” companies (think: 50+ year old, ones like banks, airlines etc with massive tech teams)

They are pouring money into AI pilots, licenses, and want to find training

They gave up on training (for now)

🚨 NOT A DRILL: AI Job Apocalypse

People are literally training AI to take their own jobs.
