Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that he’ll be deeply alarmed if an engineer getting paid $500,000 a year does not consume at $250,000 worth of AI tokens to get their job done.

      A few suggestions that would incentivise actual growth and improvement rather than market fraud and personal enrichment.

      Cap CEO compensation to a reasonably “fair” multiple of their workforces average. Compensation type must match that average as well (cash/stock/scrip.) Bonuses follow the same rules.

      Stock buybacks require the company to commit to both workforce and r&d budget increases of the same value before they can be done again.

      Mass layoffs require issuance of new stock that match the % of the workforce cut.

      Oh I’m sure, at least in some small measure, this was exactly the mindset that pushed this shit into every facet of existence. Some rich fucks realized genAI could do their dumb ass jobs better than them for a fraction of the cost, so they spent the last few years doing all they can to show how genAI can actually do the jobs of service workers and creative types, better.
