This guy is such a waste of carbon. Don’t be fooled by his title as a “researcher” or him being in Stanford. He’s just another Tech Bro, pushing his “product” to greedy companies to make a few bucks for himself.
And his sponsor? This guy.
Both deserve the deepest level of hell!
I predict that “career” as we know it today will disappear shortly. We will have to change careers every 5 to 10 years. Depending on where the wind is blowing from and if there will be any vacant jobs. Being an expert in a field will not have much of a value as that expertise will be stolen by AI during one’s employment anyway. What can be helpful in this dystopia waiting for us would be analytic problem solving skills, creativity, constant learning and curiosity. But no matter what, we will all end up with minimum wage.
The thing is; now it doesn’t matter if your job has been done properly by AI or not, what matters is that it’s just cheaper. And when all companies jump on this bandwagon of enshittification for profit it becomes the standard. This already happened with customer support. It’s nearly impossible to get a human when you call for support. All customers hate it, make their life harder. But still all companies do it and with no alternative you just have to accept it. From what I see, the adoption to AI happens in two ways: either you want to make your human driven processes better by utilizing AI or for cheaper with AI but with ‘passable’ quality. And it looks like companies are mostly in the second camp. So I don’t think besides some exceptional cases and industries the quality of work will be a determining factor.
Exactly this. Also it used to be that you would buy a subscription and that would increase the rate and quality of your matches. That’s no longer the case. Now it’s all transaction based. You have to pay for boosts, special swipes and shit to be seen.
Such a great article. Also the images, videos and animations are so beautiful.
I worked in both small and big companies.
That “micromanaging CEO” can also happen in big companies as your skip-manager doing that. So, being in a big company isn’t a safe bet against it.
I would say there are more pros than cons in working for a small company. Especially if you’re at the beginning of your career.
What you should make absolutely clear is that what you’ll be working on i.e. products & technologies.
Pros:

This. Also if I have to change jobs every 2-3 years to get a market level salary why would I even bother. This is the reality they created.
I wonder what’s gonna be the next shit they will try to pull. They are acting like a spoiled child.
Hoping Tyson will make his signature move. 👂 🤣
Such an unfortunate name choice. 🤦
Yes, finally. But I would say a bit late to the party. And a privacy focused IM not thinking about this for years blows my mind.
For me:
