      Soon there will be little use for these consultants when AI can generate a strategy powerpoint of equal or better value on demand

      edit- be mad all you want, but it’s true. The executive suite uses these consultants to avoid risk, once they convince themselves that they can offload that same risk to AI, they will drop these consultants.

      I’m not from New York but I really like this guy and he just seems like such a real dude

      I especially love how he did this without mentioning any politician or party. It was 100% on point about actions and results.

      I hope we see more like him run for office.

      Look, I understand there’s merit into (actually) researching trash cans (Netherlands have something great going for them in that area), but “paid $1.6m to research trash cans” is really funny.

      Really funny in an amusing way, but mostly, in that was to keep you from crying

      This project is a running joke among all consulting firms. It’s completely a waste of money and McK was laughing all the way to the bank.

      I keep seeing things on tiktok that his wife had a lot of racist & anti-black tweets. I’m really hoping that’s not the case because he’s going such great work but the lack of acknowledgement or apology from her is very loud

      So basically he’s trying to find money since he’s been shut out for his rich tax lol

      Huh, a competent leader, who (at least so far), seems like he is not corrupt. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?

      Damn, can we have a mamdani for the federal government that does this for the military and gives us social programs instead?

      Hopefully he starts divesting all NYC funds from Israel as well.

      I like the choice of the background music from Schedule 1 so this sounds like one of the boys giving their speech on how to get the money to afford the next cookhouse.

      Everyone needs to stop giving MckInsey money. They are just some rando ass MBA folks with no experience coming up with random ideas which mostly are just layoffs. If anyone’s interested, John Oliver did a good spot on them a few years back.

      This is surely worth the time and is not performative at all and will definitely make a dent compared to the Department of Education’s $38 billion annual budget (23,750x larger)

      He’ll just funnel it into his own money laundering. That’s what they all do. But he’ll give it to illegal immigrants.
