    Facts. I had five requests for “AI workforce optimization strategies” last quarter. People paying big bucks to find out their bright vision of the future is fucking dead end over and over again is kinda fascinating. There are ways to implement AI to improve specific parts of the workflow. Busywork mostly but nevertheless - it can work. However, none of it works in tandem with saving money on having fewer people on the team. The only real tangible benefit of implementing AI tools at this point is that your team members burn out a bit slower.

        no. pushing harder is counterproductive under most circumstances. unless it is an emergency security situation - there is no good reason to crunch your team.

            aren’t they gone extinct? Maybe it is a regional thing - down here in Ukraine we ran out of these guys by the time the invasion started.

          i 100% agree, but making life easier for staff isn’t what corps tend to do: if things get easier, that just means now you can do more

            well, that’s corps for ya. that’s why people work in startups and scam corps out of ridiculous sums of money for some bullshit solutions wrapped around in shiny presentations. in most cases the only place where everybody go out of their way to “get things done” is on paper.
