Once worked for a narcissistic bosshole who told me how the Internet was such a game changer, and implied his bullying of staff to work harder than before was somehow justified.
For similar reasons sociopath bossholes love AI because it justifies pressuring their employees to adopt the "hardcore" work culture.

@bornach @keoni @camertron i've long suspected that the main benefit of this LLM craze isnt that it can do our jobs, but that it creates a quasi-credible omnipresent threat that we are all replaceable, without this ever needing to be definitively proven true. The best way to address this is to call their bluff with a general strike. "Oh youre gonna replace us with AI? Ok, go ahead and do it."
