Thread regarding IBM layoffs

IBM claims that AI will reshape marketing

I see that IBM is trying to aggressively push their planes regarding the application of AI in the sector of marketing into the media. Maybe in terms of publicity, after the Watson disaster in cancer treatment, the smart thing to do was to switch the focus from Watson health. On the other hand, maybe a better thing to do was not to push the plans regarding AI into the media at all, at least until IBM can be sure that it has a product that will not fail.

The more IBM badges you have could = more chances of an RA coming your way.

(too much time on your hands)

A catch 22 for the very annoying proud bluebirds at IBM.

In fact Watson’s secretive logistic algorithm replaces normal science and makes mincemeat of marketing. You can learn about it at Watson Academy and earn badges to share and impress your LinkedIn friends.

That's hilarious when you think about it.

"Hey, look at our results....oh wait a second, on second thought look the other way"

What a joke IBM has become.

Apparently their next big product is "Watson CEO Advisor".

This article brings up the elephant in the room question. “IBM hows that working out for ya”. Ginni’s record of 20+ quarters of revenue decline shows they absolutely know how to use AI. !!! This quarter is shaping up to be far more of the same, which begs to ask Ginni do you have any idea what the hell you are doing??? Maybe you should chat with your employees rather than your exec’s because you sure are not getting it done. Reminds me of the movie Bueller??? Bueller??? Bueller??? (instead of saying save Ferris, perhaps we should be saying save Ginni)
