Oh my god, these are real, actual slides from a SoftBank presentation. Pulitzer-worthy
They really are dead upstairs, and they just move money back and forth like tides and moons. They don't even need to wake-up (sober-up) to succeed in banking, meaningless as they've made it all.
The offices and desks are just to make us think they have a purpose in it. -
@dev Someone do a welfare check on the missing Keebler elf.

@heavyimage @dan @steve @dev also putting in a good word for the episode of Well There's Your Problem on military powerpoint, which has some real goodies in it and plenty of context from a service member about the sort of environment that creates some of them (while still being baffled at a few of their specimens)

@heavyimage @steve @dev yes, this must be where I got the idea!
Like the article says, the best is when they start trying to explain and analyze purely abstract concepts. I remember reading one about “commander’s intent”. Not any specific commander’s intent, but the very idea of intent itself.
They are truly powerpointing at a level the rest of us cannot even comprehend.

@dev its interesting to see the robotics bubble also get acknowledged. Those humanoid robots in the illustration have no use case. Roboticists fear the next AI winter will also be a robotics winter. Non-humanoid robots are actually useful, so maybe they'll escape it.

I just posted my favorite image from the essay where it almost becomes like an illustration in a linguistic philosophy paper. I too bow to this level of power pointing.

I-Is this Marxist theory of value wrongly applied and enhanced with AI?Can this get more cursed?
@Tiempo @dev This is a perfectly average Softbank slide deck. If you don't believe me, take a look at https://group.softbank/system/files/pdf/philosophy/vision/next30/press_20100625_01_en.pdf
