    …parody? Pretty sure that was the idea behind AI all along. Replace humans and their salaries with one time cost AI.

      I think the joke is that management thinks the jobs replaced will be the workers. But even CEOs work for the capital class.

      “one time cost” lol. As idiots will do, they forgot to factor in the cost of electricity, which they’re now trying to pass on to the humans they are replacing.

      Sadly no.

      AI could indeed replace low skilled labour as well as the bullshit most CEO are considering work. However the CEOs investing massively in the AI bubble are dreaming of the exactly opposite: Replace the skilled jobs of all those pesky people demanding actual wages and have everyone be a low-paid, well-conmtrolled peasant under their leadership.
