I'm so sorry @GrayDragon

So?

Good.

I don't seem to be able to recall any of those fuckers crying for all the blue collar workers who's jobs got outsourced.
Now we're supposed to weep for the white collar workers who are soon going to find themselves AI-sourced?

I'd say, "Learn to code", but, well, you know...

The simple fact is that the vast majority of those jobs are just bullshit paper-shuffling make-work.
The world isn't going to end due to a sudden lack of useless power-point slides that nobody ever paid any attention to anyway.

(Wouldn't this also be a very strong indication that all those H1B visas are no longer necessary and can be sent back now?)
