Underlings are so annoying!

Sometimes you can make this problem go away by exploiting weak labor power (see: factories, agriculture, sanitation).

Sometimes you can create a toxic org culture when information •only• flows down the hierarchy, so no pushback can ever reach your sensitive ears. (Public school administrations are rife with this.)

Sometimes you can do it by making your catastrophic failures look like a string of successes to the people up the chain. (Large corporations are swimming in this.)

But now, LLMs offer a beautiful new promise: your brilliant notions can proceed full speed without any pesky underlings at all!

You can just •build the app• or •launch the campaign• or whatever, and nobody will tell you annoying things like “that won’t work” or “that timeline is unrealistic” or “that will create even larger problems” or “people will die.” The chat LLM is there to say YES to your hitherto-unacknowledged brilliance!
