It blows my mind just how unimaginably stupid some of these CEO’s actually are. Tell us again, how the best and brightest, naturally rise to the top. I’ve known janitors with more common sense than this.
Many of them jump ship and keep working as CEOs, dooming dozens of companies as they bank millions in pay.
I’ve worked with a couple people like this. They’ll come in bragging about their (actually) impressive résumé. There will be a honeymoon phase where everyone is convinced Mr. Fancy Résumé will change the world. A year or two will go by and everyone will realize they are the embodiment of capitalism. All confidence, importance and big talk on the outside, actually dumb and ineffective on the inside. Gilded, you could say. They get wind that their time may be up, quit, put their new badge on their résumé and starting fucking the next one. All that is to say there are a lot of people out there who are great at building a résumé, but not actually great at doing any work.
Turds rise to the top
Not just some.
When the AI chatbot responded that the earnout would be “difficult to cancel,” the ruling read, Kim didn’t accept the answer. He pushed further—and the chatbot obliged with a detailed, multi-stage corporate takeover strategy dubbed “Project X.”
Project X, not at all childish or anything 😆
It’s also a great emotionally crushing movie starring Matthew Broderick training chimps to fly planes.
The kind of thing you’d see in a movie plot. You know, like the text that the text generation machine was trained on that matches this kind of situation.
Project X
Sounds like a teenager’s ambitious ideas lol.
Musk is obsessed with the letter X, he probably told grok to always use it,and that leaked to chatgpt because the plagiarism bots all plagiarise each other.
Well you have to admit, Project X sounds a lot cooler than Project C.
Holy… I cannot believe that many people would bother to come to an unknown event. Unbelievable, lol. Thanks for sharing.

OMG, the text transformer did a text transformation task!
And yet another indication that rich fucks are not rich because they are smart but because they are sociopaths/psychopaths.
Cunts.
HEY!
Some of them inherited their wealth
Some
I think it’s „Most“. In the rest of the world more so than in the US but yea
Omg you’re kidding. This can’t be real can it?
It is haha, was heavily reported when it first was revealed!
It is so unbelievably ludicrous why these giants feel so compelled to keep gaining as much money as they can when they could already retire several lifetimes’ worth. Greed is truly a mental illness.
I don’t get it. If I somehow ended up with enough money to not have to work the rest of my life I’d buy a decently nice house and and a newer sedan so that it’s reliable, keep working part time in my field because I genuinely love it, spend more time on my hobbies, and do all the traveling I’ve been dreaming of but too broke to do my entire life.
If I had a ludicrous amount of money I’d have a serious thought about how many normal people I could help and how and who I wanted to help. I’d love to set up a scholarship fund for adults going back to school (any school), but I’d also love to help adults in underdeveloped nations starting a business, and I’d love to work with medical charities, and I’d love to help underprivileged children get educated, and there’s so many things I’d love to do to help people’s lives get better.
Scheming on how to steal more money from ordinary people would be the last thing on my list!
I’m not going to pretend that I wouldnt do rich guy shit and try to constantly grow my wealth to some degree but at the very least Id make sure my employees fucking adored me and be the absolute gold standard of employers.
Too much money and power just corrupts the mind and I truly believe that only very few people can resist.
Is it too much money and power corrupts the mind, or is it a corrupt mind that seeks too much money and power?
One of those you may be able to do a bit of today https://www.kiva.org/

Why is no one using their full name? How do you embarrass anyone or hold them accountable if you didn’t even say their name?
Kim Chang-han
There can’t be that many CEOs of Krafton… it’s not really a mystery who it is
I have no interest in learning the names of every CEO. Publish the names when they are caught doing something shitty so everyone recognizes it as an asshole
The point is, “CEO of <company>” is just as, if not more identifiable than their name, that everyone will forget in a week.
Reduces friction and avoiding the need for looking things up.
How does a person this fucking stupid become a CEO of any company? Jesus fucking Christ.
Because we don’t promote those with worthwhile talents, the grifters find their way in and fail upwards.
Privilege. That’s the entire thing. Meritocracy is a lie.
Always has been.
Partly that, and partly the fact that the system rewards psychopathic attitudes and a machiavellian willingness to stomp on whoever you have to in order to get your way. It’s the reason why CEOs and executives exude such a disproportionate level of anti-social behaviour.
They wouldn’t be CEO unless they had the parasitic impulse. If they wanted to make things or facilitate people there are way better positions to do that from
Dad was rich probably
Holy shit these greedy ass people need to just go the fuck away.
CEOs are hard working geniuses who deserve their very high compensation, episode 84051
Well you know they take all the risks. Except when something bad happens it is how could they have known what was happening in the company.
Have we tarred and feathered this loser yet or what?
Or what.
This CEO is proof that humans are a vile animalistic beast that will eliminate each other as soon as possible.
The worst luck any living creature can have is a human livimg near by.
Any true hyper inteligent alien presense knows to erase humanity if it ever tries to leave earth.
Humans are a biological virus, already weaponized, just waiting to be
abducteddeployed.Nah, most humans just want their basic needs met and a bit extra for a healthy mind and body.
The scum just rises to the top.
He always had a full legal team at his disposal. But he not only didn’t consult them, he completely ignored their warnings, fully trusting the sycophancy machine.
Next he sues chatGPT, not openAi, but the LLM itself.
That’s because he doesn’t have to pay ChatGPT for a consultation, I’d wager.
CEOs are in for a shock in the near future. The board would LOVE to eliminate their bloated salaries, and ChatGPT can actually do their job. Unlike the janitor.
Now, I know a big part of their scam is being on each other’s boards and backing each other up, to keep their own salaries high and maintain power. But… nobody gets to be CEO without screwing over many people, and all of those victims don’t just disappear into the ether. They have more enemies than many of them even realize.
The board would LOVE to eliminate their bloated salaries
“The board” is typically made up of the CEOs and other C-suite denizens of other companies, so it’s in their interest to approve the bloated compensation packages because then their own bloated compensation packages get approved. Corporations are a true circle jerk in the finest sense of the term.
I guess the obvious question is “Did that include CEO bonuses as well?”. Those bonuses are the artificially gigantic ones given to scavenger/predators who hurt their own employees to benefit the shareholders.
I still don’t understand the justification for CEO bonuses. They provide zero value to the company and shareholders. They are signing away money to an individual with zero return. Aside from motivating them to do the job they are already paid for…
I think they’re like bribes so they always remember who they serve
They provide zero value to the company and shareholders.
That isn’t exactly true. They make final decisions about what the company does and how, which relates to how profitable the company is.
Bad CEOs reduce profitability while good ones increase it.
Not saying that they deserve massive bonuses for it, though.
They raise money, that’s the CEOs job. So they get these bonuses because they convinced a billionaire to invest $100M, and if they get fired that billionaire is out.
Not agreeing with them and not understanding them are very different things.
I don’t agree with them but I do understand that because they do a ton of unethical shit daily to both their customers and employees they feel entitled to as much fucking money as they can grab, because why the fuck not, they sold their soul for this and that ain’t cheap.
Oh and I almost forgot, there’s no consequences.
That seems a lot of money for a small game
They were trying to do a Elon Musk/Twitter and bullshit their way from the beginning.
Why is this being announced as a “release”? It’s only early access (beta). Games release when they’re finished, not when they put out a pay-to-test beta.
Yes, thank you! Even finished games come out not finished now. They end up patching them after go-live.
Released doesn’t necessarily mean finished. Subnautica 2 has been released to the public, in early access.
Because it was going to enter early access a lot sooner, but this asshole took control away from the devs.
So it’s released from all this meddling.
Holy crap if that’s not a heartwarming story, I don’t know what is.
