Grindin’

The CEO of Grindr thinks you should be working more, not less. I guess you’re supposed to find time to use his app in between your shifts strip-mining asteroids or the moon or mars or whatever other bizarre form of make-work he thinks his users should being doing. He’s also particularly excited about all that lucrative data you’re paying to generate for him.

Meanwhile, the functionality of the app keeps getting worse as, he admits, it’s overrun with spam and bots, which is a result of the AI he’s in love with. “Unleash the potential of AI as much as possible” is a favorite phrase of his.

Sometimes I wonder if people like this can hear themselves talk, but then I realize, yes, they can–they absolutely love the sound of their own voice. It’s the only way to explain how they can say such utter nonsense with such confidence.
