Here was my list of the 18 hottest tech employers circa 2014... 🤦♂️
• Amazon
• Apple
• Cisco
• Dell
• eBay
• Facebook
• Google
• HP
• IBM
• Intel
• LinkedIn
• Microsoft
• Oracle
• Salesforce
• Samsung
• Uber
• Twitter
• Yahoo
And then Alan Stein had the brilliant idea to ask ChatGPT to update for 2024 💡
Here's what it recommended adding:
1. Tesla
2. SpaceX
3. NVIDIA
4. OpenAI
5. ByteDance/TikTok
6. Stripe
7. Netflix
8. Snowflake
And subtracting:
1. Yahoo: Acquisitions and a shift in focus mean Yahoo is not as prominent or influential as it was in 2014.
2. HP: While still significant in hardware, HP’s overall tech influence has diminished compared to cloud-first and software-centric players.
3. IBM: Despite its storied history, IBM has struggled to maintain its relevance in AI and cloud against newer entrants like AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure.
4. Intel: Faced with fierce competition from ARM-based chips (Apple’s M1/M2 series) and AMD, Intel’s dominance in processors is challenged.
Ouch! 😬
What do you think? Did ChatGPT nail it??? 🔨
