There is a direct correlation between how fake your job is and how much value you see in AI
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?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

”There are cats in hell but of their own accord” is one of those things that sounds like it came from the Bible or Dante
I think that there are cats in hell, but only because they wanted to wander around and see what it was like, and they can leave whenever they feel like it.
The cat-associated infernal torment is knowing that they are there but being ignored by them. Like Tantalus with his grapes.

I'm exhausted, literally half of my work team is out today, I have to pretend to care because I'm helping to interview people (for a position not on my team), and I keep getting bombarded with the sad story about the beached whale in Yachats.

Xicha closed their location in our neighborhood, and I was sad until Rogue opened a new location in our neighborhood. Now THAT has shut down. I can't have nice things (good beer and good food within walking distance).
