Thread regarding Oracle Corp. layoffs

Strange AI thought process

There’s a growing misconception that AI "does the entire work. employees are sitting and watching". In reality, AI is helper not full-performer. Still lots of development requires human efforts. Management is pushing towards AI. The problem is once work is done, you will be first one to be thrown out.

@a9 it’s funny that you think thats the bulk of what a sales vp does. Every use case I see where AI will eliminate a role is always littered with a poor understanding of what people actually do and the value they bring.

As usual, AI is 90% hype and a small amount of actual substance.

You’re missing the mandate about increasing productivity in your pitch. Just because we have AI tools doesn’t mean the amount of work is going to be less. Instead of doing 1-2 epics you will eventually be doing 10 epics. With AI there is going to be even more software. With AI there is also going to be more competition. In fact competition is a major risk Oracle takes if they decide to lay off 30,000 people. AI will benefit all universally. It’s not going to obsolete work. We can’t even get enough compute and power resources to keep up with demand of current models.. and current models are still stupid and need baby sitting by an engineer. A functional product role is not going to be creating software on their own anytime soon. And when they create even better models demand is going to increase again and again. So unless Oracle literally becomes a digital oracle, they are still going to be resource bound like everyone else. Except smaller dev teams can compete with big Oracle using AI now. A real David vs Goliath situation. Oracle is going to have to work even harder to maintain it’s relevance.

AI will eventually handle most of the work, maybe in 10, 20 years, or 30 years. There’s no shortage of hungry tech folks racing to become billionaires and trillionaires :0):0):0):0):0)

AI will be able to eliminate Regional Manager and VP Sales roles very soon.

Tools will handle forecasts, performance management and recruiting.

The entire old school corporate ecosystem will soon have a seismic shift.

This is what to fear from the next 3-5 years

From my observation AI really generates mess, overload with the new tools, unexpected behaviors. In fact the work is getting slower, processes are getting more complex, it makes a worse condition of a team work. I cannot even image now the scenario that AI id getting owners richer.
