schestowitz[TR2]It has zero to do with nationalities and everything to do with costs. AK’s job 1 as CEO was to lower IBM’s costs and invest in Enterprise solutions and strategies before he exited stage right. He for the most part has accomplished that. First world employees have 3x the burden rate vs 2nd and third world employees, yet all three groups are just as productive! That’s why IBM has been replacing NA and Northern European employeeOct 15 03:41
schestowitz[TR2]s with Indian employees at a 1-1 replacement ratio. The burden rate savings of 66 cents per dollar spent on employees drops right to the bottom line. Everyone says AI is the great cost saver, but to date outsourcing personnel on a 1-1 basis far outpaces AI as a 66 cents return is the gift that just keeps on giving. Will AI catch on? Yes it will, but not for the reason you think. AI will catch on because NA and Northern Europe are rOct 15 03:41
schestowitz[TR2]unning out of personnel who can be outsourced. It’s a numbers game, and the CFO has run out of potential NA and Northern European targets. Who’s next in the bullseye? Most likely legacy SW automation. Why? Write it once sell it multiple timesOct 15 03:41

schestowitz[TR2]OK... so, does that mean we are all (most) looking forward to see Rob Thomas take over the CEO role? He is damn white... will he favor the white folks?Oct 15 03:41

-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | Revocation of “ICE” EUTM: thousands of pages of evidence do not necessarily establish genuine use - The IPKatOct 15 15:07
schestowitz[TR2]"This is reminiscent of some earlier EUIPO decision...</a></h5><blockquote>This is reminiscent of some earlier EUIPO decisions on proof of use, for example Supermac vs. Big Mac, which saw McDonald's lose their trademark &quot;Big Mac&quot; (EUTM 62638) due to an alleged lack of evidence for genuine use (later partially revoked by the General Court). Another example would be the decision on Apple's &quot;Think Different&quot; (T 26/Oct 15 15:07
schestowitz[TR2]21, T 27/21, T 28/21, ECLI:EU:T:2022:250). In any case, the use requirement at the EUIPO has to be taken seriously, and it pays of to ask an expert in order to avoid losing a valuable brand, which you might just have taken for granted without documenting its actual use."Oct 15 15:07
