Has somebody already mentioned this?! I will add that my pizza delivery order tonight was 100% AI. This is the WSJ:

“Jack Dorsey isn’t wasting any time. The chairman and co-founder of Block is cutting 40% of the payments company’s workforce, or more than 4,000 employees, betting artificial-intelligence tools can fill the gap.”

$€£¥!

I know. So many pieces moving so fast. Internet and smart phones and social media were also massively impactful but they developed over time. Somewhat offsetting this is that, like the early Internet days, what AI actually can do may be overblown. I really worry about the infrastructure spending, and double worried about the huge private debt involved.

Bs headline imo.

Dorsey over hired during Covid.

Cut staff, call it “AI oriented”, get applauded by the financial markets instead of called out for poor management planning.

I don’t disagree with what he did but that doesn’t equate to a reduction on this scale. It really depends on the company/industry of course. I am keeping my eyes on the horizon to get clues about what’s next. Always have.

AI made and delivered your pizza?

Making it too is not as unlikely as you think. But, no, just took my order, payment, and driver tip.

Was your pizza virtual? And if so are you still hungry?

likefunny

Ate virtually as well, in VR. And feeling virtually full. IRL, venting on FB🤣

Speak more about your ai enabled pizza delivery order

Nothing dramatic. Order itself had twists because wife and I like different things, and it captured the order perfectly. Then payment including driver tip. It was no different than ordering from a person - done well.

Was the pizza good?

Can’t really get good pizza via delivery but it was OK.

You know the old saying “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt."
