Let’s think this through. You were originally hired by Ford as an engineer. Then Ford replaced you with AI. Their AI isn’t working properly and they hire you back to “fix” it. What happens next? 🤔

Sabotage! I would be trying to kill the AI systems like Sarah Connor in the Terminator movie :crackup:

AI is already causing more trouble than it’s worth in some areas. Ford underestimated the value of these engineers so now Ford has to hire back over 350 experienced engineers to fix AI’s mistakes. Who didn’t see this coming? 🤦‍♂️

LOL they just recalled 740,000 vehicles for trans 'defect that can ‌damage the park system, which in turn could result in vehicles rolling away' Not Rangers of course

... and when it's not "their fault", those who knows everything about anything, then Corporate America, extracts everything you have to give, chews you up and spits you out like an old lemon peel, especially when you do not play "bootlick" .

This, right here 100%. That statement is very true.

I know a very senior engineer that was let go along with 4 others from a US tech hardware company once they were bought by a VC company. Very specialised stuff. Within 2 years they offered him a ridiculous amount to go back, he couldn't say no. Stayed 2 years and then went out on his own.
