‘Can AI sit there in a fleece vest?’: John Mulaney’s Salesforce roast was a masterclass in corporate comedy

The stand-up comedian ripped into the AI cloud-based company’s employees – and got praised for it online

Last week, John Mulaney looked out on a crowd of corporate Salesforce employees and told them they were “imminently replaceable.

“You look like a group who looked at the self-checkout counters at CVS and thought, ‘This is the future,’” the comedian said. “If AI is truly smarter than us and tells us that [humans] should die, then I think we should die. So many of you feel imminently replaceable.”
