I think a great marketing strategy about now for almost any product or service would be, “ABSOLUTELY NO AI USED OR SOLD!” -

every mom ever: "if everyone else were jumping off a bridge, would you jump off too?"
every CEO: "it's the new trend! jump or be left behind! jumping i go!"

@david_chisnall Profits? My sheer brilliance, of course. Losses? Market forces, obviously.

@david_chisnall
Past examples include
- off-shoring many things
- re-shoring a good portion of those things
- hiring McKenzie or Bain as cover for your layoffs
- putting most of your data in "the cloud"
- pulling back the most vital of that data
- making and maintaining platform apps instead of a really good website
- using a closed 3rd party platform as the primary conduit to your customers, vendors, and partners.
- donating to a presidential inauguration
- TQM, 6 sigma, KPIs, ABM, HBR TLAs@PizzaDemon @david_chisnall 6 sigma still makes me twitch.

@paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall This is why I've always suggested people say things like "so easy, even your CEO could use it" rather than the more common one.

@paul_ipv6 @david_chisnall Indeed, I’m increasingly convinced the reason CEO are convinced AI may substitute everyone is that it can surely substitute their work and they think they are god so clearly it should be able to substitute everybody else. After all they are paid as thousands of them.
