Tobias Lütke from Shopify blames the humans in the loop

A good example of exactly what those employees are there for - taking the blame.

You just know these guys were told to use AI for everything and went along with it. Now they’re being raked over the coals. Damned if you do damned if you don’t

Not to be confused with Tobias Fünke, worlds first analrapist.

Also a never-nude in cutoff jean shorts, lol

“There are dozens of us! DOZENS!”

Oh look, it's the motherfucker who thinks that rich people should have more votes and is best buddies with DHH. Why am I not surprised?

(Aside: the company I work for uses Shopify and it became total horseshit over the last years. Guess this explains a lot.)

Of course he will not back down, that would mean admitting he made tossing grenades at each other mandatory.

Also the idea that I could just pretend to do my job while being at the gym. I would be on unemployment so fast.
