Zoom CEO Eric Yuan used an AI avatar for his initial comments on Zoom's Q1 earnings call on May 21; Klarna's CEO used an AI avatar to deliver earnings on May 19

That's what Klarna just reported.  Largely thanks to smart AI integration.  —  https://lnkd.in/... … Georg Zoeller : Klarna is a front runner at replacing humans with AI and then quietly undoing when the PR benefit has run out. … Matthew Moynahan : We're entering an inflection point in the use of AI, one where the line between what's real and what's synthetic - or legitimate versus deceptive use - is becoming increasingly blurred. … Forums: r/technology : After Klarna, Zoom's CEO also uses an AI avatar on quarterly call

    If AI is going to replace the employees, why not the CEO as well?  🤦🏾‍♂️

    AI avatars of this type are an abomination, indicative only of an era of profligacy and derangement.
