Perfect example of a fantasy put forth by an executive.

these kind of comments on HN show me how many people lack creativity. wherever you work(ed) I am sure you met myriad of people and thought:

- they don’t do shit

- I can do what they do in my sleep

it is these types of jobs that are being replaced and are easily replaceable with a little bit of creativity and imagination…

The parent comment asked (very specifically!) for real examples, not C-suite fantasies. They received a reply literally describing the fantasy of a c-suite individual. I thought that was funny.

How my one sentence reply pointing out the irony of the reply led you to believe that I (we? lots of HNers?) lack creativity is beyond me.

If management knows that underperformers are underperformers in order to fire them in favor of LLMs then management could do it already in favor of better workers.

You can basically string replace "replace underperforming humans" with "replace humans". That is their dream
