If your job can be replaced with GPT, you had a bullshit job to begin with.

This one's funny to me, because the people who WILL try to replace you with GPT don't care if they CAN replace you with GPT. They just will.

Look at how it's haphazardly shoved into everything for no reason whatsoever already.

Business fails, next business pops up.

Yep! And we're in the big tech era, so it can also be:

Business fails to produce any value and uses it's influence to prevent the next business from popping up.

Business without value has influence?

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Yes.

Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Amazon. None would still be business after recent decisions, if not for their market dominating capital size.

That is, their recent decisions provide no value to anyone else, and are made solely because they can, due to their size and anti-capitalist practices they have been allowed to get away with.
