Just reminding everyone that Lutke is a right-wing shitheel, and that he and Shopify explicitly platform, support and make money from Nazism.

Carry on.

Id tell them I can get AI to do anything they want. They're the ones who will be paying for me to spend not hours but days tweaking prompts to get whatever shit they want done that could've been done faster cheaper and better with appropriate resources so fuck it I'm in.

should just be a matter of saying “AI can’t do this job because it can’t properly do any job”. could even make that your email signature.

Let's all just make new companies that are unionized-cooperatives bringing all our coworkers into them

In this example that CEO isn't needed

A lot was invested on the promise of AI, only to discover that it's not capable of becoming this "super intelligence" people were banking on.

They were going for "super intelligence" and instead they got Cliff Clavin from Cheers.

AI is pretty good at spouting bullshit but it doesn't have the same giant ego that human CEOs have so resources previously spent on coddling the CEO can be spent on something more productive. Not to mention it is a lot less effort to ignore everything an AI CEO says.

AI can replace CEOs and usher in a new business model where companies are co-operative based

Employees should start setting up an AI to prove it can do Tobi Lutke's extremely difficult job of making a small number of important decisions every once in a while.

Asking to prove a negative? More like stupidfy CEO.

Everyone stop doing your jobs

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Ah yes more paperwork is certainly going to make your employees more productive. Why don't you also require them to prototype if kicking a rock against the wall 10 times does the job, instead of actually letting them do the job?

This guy just gives off never nude vibes

Shopify is a stupid fucking name. I can only assume the company and service is equally as stupid.

Are you trolling or have you really never heard of shopify? Prolly every ecommerce website you've ever visited was built by either wix, big commerce or shopify with shopify (iirc) holding the largest market share of the 3. That may have changed since I last looked at adding e-commerce builders to my investment portfolio but theyre definitely top 3.
