No he isn’t.
He is sorry. Sorry he got caught.
“I’m sorry the lower value human capital heard me call them that.”
Whew. Thank goodness that passed
The biggest clue was when they started referring to us as a “resource”. We’re just another input on their spreadsheet.
I used to work at a place that actually changed the name from Human Resources Dept. to Human Capital Dept. and none of the higher ups could figure out why that pissed everybody off.
Honestly people being either a “resource” or “capital” still makes people sound like they’re vespene gas or something
Frankly “people team” is one I’ve been seeing and I think that’s disingenuous or condescending or something. I don’t know what I think it should be.
It should be “union steward.”
Honestly, capital sounds better. Resources are something you comsume. Capital is something you invest with/in. People are just used to being called resources.
Always have been. They’re just saying the quiet part out loud.
CEOs shouldn’t apologize for fireable offenses. They should just be fired.
Out of a cannon.
Into the sun
Uh why would the board fire him for doing his job
Actually using that term was a slipup for sure, but you bet your ass finding ways to cut HR costs is part of his job description
Who the fuck cares if he claims to be “sorry”? This wasn’t a case of awkward phrasing or poorly chosen words. It’s a reflection of how he thinks, and will continue to think. Even if he loses his job (which he won’t), he’d only be replaced by someone with the same attitude.
I am very sorry ^that I got caught^
Agreed that this is the actual feeling he has.
They don’t view us as human beings or at the very least equal. Have no remorse for when terrible things happen to them.
“Sorry not sorry that it was recorded.” Why do they waste their time asking for forgiveness?
Luigi.
The Mario Bros of this world know that these rich fucks aren’t being sincere.
They are SO HORNY at the thought of not paying wages.
It’s not even that since they usually end up paying more for AI even when it produces far worse results. The rich just hold a contempt towards the working class and would rather the money they’d use for salaries go to their rich tech company friends in the form of AI-use invoices
Yeah specifically with AI, that and the whole “scan and summarize all cloud messages and storage and remove the average person’s ability to buy any technology and force them into a locked down cloud only experience” has been coming together for a while now so they’re edging so hard
But I mean in general they just can’t comprehend not keeping it all
Saying the quiet part out loud.
“Sorry I told you what I actually think”
I’ve never understood the purpose of forcing executives to apologize.
He said exactly what he meant, to a group of investors who largely feel positively about his message.
A forced apology is condescending and meaningless, and therefore I cannot see how it improves optics in any way.
The culture of corporate of PR insists that not only do meaningless canned responses help, but they’re invaluable. After all, the media will faithfully record those canned replies and reproduce them as though they’re salient information, no matter how empty and vapid the cloud of buzzwords produced.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The only job that I am 100% certain could be successfully offloaded onto an AI is CEO.
I dunno, those Indian call center reps that can speak English but not understand it can already emulate what AI does fine. Both don’t understand what they are doing or saying and just following an obnoxious script.
The problem isn’t even this particular pos, its that almost all rich people think this way.
This guy provides zero value to society. He steals value created by others and claims it for himself. He’s on the list.
Bank boss sorry after being called out for describing workers as lower value human capital
FTFY
Bank boss delivers opposing sentiments in fraudulent effort to increse personal wealth by increasing bank’s stock price.
FTFY
(You assume a person with no empathy can be sorry)
This skinsuit and whatever is inside it are the main reason countries are failing, we have robots without any capacity for humanity in positions to direct our lives, not just in banks, politics, healthcare, security and none of them care about us, we’re nothing to them, barely accepted as an annoyance that they have to pay.
Sorry he got caught.
