dinosaur ignorance

The willful refusal of corporate leadership to acknowledge or adopt emerging technology, trends, or innovations. This often leads to catastrophic business failure. Most commonly found in legacy companies where senior execs are allergic to change and cling to outdated models like it’s still 1995.

Symptoms include:

- Laughing off disruptive startups

- Refusing to invest in digital transformation (including AI)

- Saying things like “This is how we’ve always done it”

- Holding 3-hour meetings to ignore 3-minute solutions

- Exaggerated paranoia about worst case outcomes trying new things.

- Refusal to invest extra money just because it might lower short term profitability and might temporarily upset investors.

- Pathetically trying to look “new and hip” by wasting money on asinine expenditures DEI and wokeness thinking customers will overlook outdated products and services. This was especially problematic 2021-2024 but still unfortunately prevalent in many corporations. This is the “Bud Light” effect.
Blockbuster had a chance to buy Netflix for pocket change, but their execs unfortunately had Dinosaur Ignorance. They thought they were too big to fail and they couldn’t see the asteroid of new technology about to obliterate their entire business model. Now there is just a sad empty dusty store in Oregon full of regrets.

Ignore The Cripple

Shut it Elon. Elon pooped the bed! He's the Dog(e) that pooped in Johnny Depp's bed and he pinned it on Amber!
Hym "Nope. Nope. Ignore the cripple. Do the Big Beautiful Bill. Make him pay for the AI. He tried to get your kids killed by stealing it. He tried to get you all killed by violating the terms of service. He's not an American. The Big Beautiful Bill is justice and so is making Elon pay me money for the AI. I was the one who did it an Elon is not."
