Amazing how employees can join together to force an entire board to resign in the interests of their CEO, but as soon as it’s about their own interests that’s absurd and naive (mastodon.xyz)

So much fucking this. I’ve said it else where, but I think the media and online talk about openAI and Altman was a great tiny little crucible for seeing the corporate and CEO cultism that dominates mainstream culture.

Joining together for the CEO!! Whom everyone all of a sudden has some sympathy for. But laying off thousands of employees half a year earlier … business as usual!

CEOs are just employees. Their value is as questionable as anyone else’s. It was just another layoff. Instead everyone revealed that we’re all closer to serfs.
