You have to use AI! For what? I dunno, figure it out or you're fired! <- a genius businessman, apparently...
This blind lemming-like rush towards AI that so many CEOs seem to suffer from seriously resembles cult behavior or severe drug addiction, my god...

CEO of enterprise-software powerhouse IgniteTech.
Can someone tell me what they do? They don't have a Wikipedia Article and their website is mostly AI slop.
They throw buzzwords at venture capitalists in hopes of one day selling out.

They are so hung up on replacing employees with AI, but they don't know how, so they force the employees to use AI, in the hope that the employee will teach the AI how to replace them

replacing nearly 80% of staff
So the title seems a little misleading. Maybe even clickbaity?

After grilling their silly LLM for a while, I was able to squeeze out what that company really is all about. They don’t really make anything. They just buy miscellaneous software companies, and turn those apps into subscription based cloud cancer. Enterprise software meets maximum enshittification, yeah baby!

They throw buzzwords
Now I understands why the CEO thinks AI could replace everybody.

"The marketing and salespeople were enthused by the possibilities of working with these new tools, he added."
I see the same push where I work and I cannot get a good answer to the most basic question:
"Why?"
"We want more people using AI."
"Why?"
". . ."
Same reason as forcing people back into the office even though it's the solution to a number of serious issues affecting society:
Investors/banks have tons of money in these markets and are incentivizing/forces companies to adopt these policies to prop up the markets, whether it is in their interest or not.

Just like an AI. Instead of learning from mistakes, he repeates them, and denies any wrongdoing.

Oh, yeah, we have that too... we want people in the office because collaboration! Synergy! etc. etc.

Because he asks the ai what's best but the chatbot always treats it as a loaded question and it wants to be seen as helpful so it finds a way to agree yes-man style.

Enterprise software is basically software tools that aide in running a large organization. When a company has grown too big to use Excel to manage their information streams they buy such software.

I'd rather use the AI than go back to the office. The AI doesn't care if I'm wearing any pants.
