This is so much worse than you think.
> Amazon laid off 30,000 engineers. Then told the ones who survived that their bonuses depend on how much they use AI to write code. So engineers started using AI to push changes faster, because their paycheck literally depends on it.
> And then the site went down. Multiple times. Amazon’s own shopping app broke because AI-generated code got pushed to production.
> So what did management do? Did they take responsibility for forcing engineers to use AI they weren’t ready for? Did they admit they created the problem?
No. They called a mandatory meeting and blamed the engineers.
> AI is powerful enough to replace engineers, we’ve been saying that all day. But it’s not powerful enough to replace quality control AND common sense all at once.
Amazon proved that executives who don’t understand AI are more dangerous than the AI itself.
And every company rushing to do the same thing is watching this and learning absolutely nothing.
No one asked if AI was ready. They just decided it was ready and began implementing.
It’s like a religion but not a divinely inspired one.

The biggest lie in tech right now is that AI is a tool.
A tool is a hammer. You pick it up, you use it, you put it down. It doesn't get better overnight. It doesn't learn from how you use it. It doesn't make a cheaper version of you while you sleep.

🚨They're not even hiding it anymore.
A startup called Kled AI just raised $5.5 million to build a "human data marketplace." Backed by the founder of Waymo, Bernard Arnault's venture fund, the owner of the Golden State Warriors, and the founder of MSCHF.
