    ceo pulled me and a colleague into his office to show us some completely awesome whizbang-a-majig he made with claude ai… the premise of the tool was already way over my head but he spent 20 minutes trying to show me it working one time, which it never did… the other guy bailed 5 minutes in saying he had a meeting to go to… i couldn’t find a good excuse

      catgirl-huh That is painful. I had somewhat of a similar experience with a VC fund techbro AI guy that would visit our startup, show ed me stuff and go on and on treating me like we were best buddies. He would act super friendly during all this and tell me about how he is going to betray the naive CEO and also casually added the part about how I better start looking for work within the next few months after the core bits are done because everyone will get fired and it will be just AI and two guys. I did lose the job btw.
