请问HN:为什么公司不在囤积人工智能人才?
我明白裁员提升了一些之前过度招聘的大公司的估值,但这已经成为我们行业几年来的一个显著特征(自2023年以来)。<p>裁员并没有带来什么实质性的变化——所有的钱似乎都集中在大约10家公司手中,而大多数公司并没有从中获益——也许在招聘时候能稍微获得更好的候选人池。<p>在很大程度上,人工智能裁员的趋势已经走到了尽头,并且并不具备创新性。没有什么重大成果会因此而来——如果人工智能只能裁员而无法创造出任何东西,那又有什么意义呢?<p>我的问题是:为什么似乎没有人利用人工智能?<p>没有人想成为下一个Netflix吗?<p>没有人想成为下一个暴雪或皮克斯吗?<p>没有人想成为下一个史蒂夫·乔布斯或沃尔特·迪士尼吗?<p>没有资金的人想雇佣一小队专家来彻底颠覆谷歌搜索吗?谷歌刚刚转向人工智能,放弃了他们的旧产品,留下了一个广阔的颠覆机会——难道没有人想抓住吗?那是一个巨大的广告市场。<p>下一个FAANG(即Facebook、Amazon、Apple、Netflix和Google)不能仅仅依靠裁员和无效的投机而诞生,而是必须通过创造每个人都在使用的新事物来实现。<p>为什么公司不疯狂招聘——将人工智能直接应用于几乎所有行业的颠覆?让人们利用这些技术来创造比现有产品更好的东西。<p>大家都在袖手旁观,想知道亚马逊或其他公司接下来会做什么。<p>他们什么也没做——也永远不会再做。如果你是少数从裁员趋势中受益的人,那很好,但我们大多数人并没有!我的问题是,为什么其他人不抓住这个巨大的颠覆性机会?<p>如果我有一个10亿美元的基金,我会把它投向那些专注于产品的人工智能初创公司。<p>现在你有技术人才在他们最优秀的状态下,颠覆正以人工智能的形式静待发生,办公空间空置得一望无际,却没有人采取行动。没有人想要这样做。显然,没有人看到这个成为各个领域新领导者的金矿机会。<p>为什么?

I get that layoffs boosted valuation of some major corporations that previously over-hired, but it’s been a defining feature of our industry for several years now (since 2023).<p>Nothing is really coming out of the layoffs - all the money is pooling in maybe 10 companies, and most don’t stand to gain anything from this - maybe slightly better candidate pool when they do hire.<p>For the most part, the AI layoff trend has ran its course and isn’t innovative. Nothing big will come out of it - if all AI can do is lay off but can’t make anything.<p>My question is this: Why is seemingly nobody taking advantage of AI?<p>Nobody wants to be the next Netflix?<p>Nobody wants to be the next Blizzard or Pixar?<p>Nobody wants to be the next Steve Jobs or Walt Disney?<p>Nobody with money wants to hire a small team of experts to obliterate Google Search as it leaves the opportunity wide open? Google just switched to AI abandoning their old product leaving it wide open for disruption - nobody wants it? Huge ad business there.<p>The next FAANG can’t be born out of layoffs and unproductive speculation but from making something new that everyone uses.<p>Why aren’t companies hiring like crazy - putting AI to direct use to disrupt just about every vertical? Put people in seats using this stuff to make WAY better stuff than exists now.<p>Everyone is just sitting on their hands wondering what Amazon or whoever will do next.<p>They aren’t doing anything - and never will again. If you’re one of the very few benefiting from the layoff trend sure good for you - most of us just aren’t! My question is why isn’t everyone else jumping at this massive disruptive opportunity?<p>If I had a $1 billion fund I would be throwing it at AI startups doing product-focused work.<p>You have tech talent now operating at their best and brightest levels ever, disruption just WAITING in the form of AI, office space vacant as far as the eye can see, and nobody’s doing anything. Nobody wants to. Nobody apparently sees this gold mine of opportunity to be the new leader in just about any category.<p>Why?
