We will have more salespeople next year because we really need to explain to people exactly the value that we can achieve with AI. So, we will probably add another 1,000 to 2,000 salespeople in the short term.

Well, good luck!

I can't wait for the AI bubble to burst. It's going to be hilarious to see these kinds of CEOs falling flat on their faces. Unfortunately, it will not be the CEOs who will suffer the most from the consequences.

The funny thing is it's easier to replace salespeople with AI than developers. They should be losing salespeople first!

No man, sales people are far more important to the bottom line. Profits first, then working product in the future. It's genius, no way that model could go wrong
