Hostile work environment.

For context this was a REAL ad campaign from tech startup Artisan, that was plastered all over the Bay Area (and later elsewhere, including internationally) last year.

It's blatantly rage bait, too. Cause a stir, get talked about, increase your brand recognition a thousandfold.

It’s a sad reality but it won’t last long. AI costs keep rising and soon it will be cheaper to hire humans again.

In retrospect, that's going to be a horrifying indictment of early 21st century capitalist society - that AI failed not because of the terrifying human and environmental cost, not because we respected our fellow human beings as workers and creators and rejected the offer to replace half of humanity with mindless drones, but because human labor was cheaper.

As long as the wallets of rich child rapists get to dictate what happens in society this will keep happening.

I haven't checked in a year or so but back then Moore's law was still in action so it'll only become cheaper and cheaper (and be less hard on the environment I hope) year over year.
