    You could have made me CEO and I would have made no changes, saving millions, I am built different and am the most rational actor in a market system.

      It’s funny but I recall someone asking on reddit if AI could replace CEOs and everyone blew a gasket; they were literally more angry than when you suggest maybe Kamala shouldn’t support Israel, people were swearing him out and calling him an idiot.

        Fuck Reddit but I find this pretty surprising as they’re generally pretty radlib. I constantly see the “CEOs are the one job AI could replace and no one would notice” refrain there.
