Most of these decisions were not made by people who understood the limits of the technology.

The uncomfortable part of all this is that it is not a technology problem. It is a leadership problem. AI does not make bad executives worse. It gives them a faster way to prove they are bad. The leaders still standing in 2030 will be the ones honest enough to put the rehiring cost in the business case before the ink dries on the layoff letter.

    I’ve seen corporates layoff massively people in Q4 and hire just as many people in Q1 the very next year. No apology (are you fucking kidding??), no self-reflection, just “the market changed and we need to react to it!”.

    So no, it’s not going to be funny. It’s going to be a blood bath and chaotic times.

    And the leaders in 2030 will still claim they did an outstanding job and give themselves generous bonuses.
