Why the pressure to work faster?

The last few months have been weird. I keep hearing from my job, that “we’re moving fast, but we need you to move faster than ever before, now that you can use AI”. I don’t understand the pressure to move faster than ever before. We are literally not in jobs that cure cancer, save planet earth, save human lives, change politics for good. My friends say the same thing, that they have immense pressure to move faster, be more productive, etc. but for what? To make the millionaires/billionaires more money? What are we doing and why isn’t any one talking about the solutions?

The psych behind cutting off a friendship

Twice in my life, I have been the person that other people have just cut out of their life. Stopped communicating with, every time I reached out my calls went to voicemail, the black hole of emails, etc. One day was fine. The next was not it really sucked and I could never figure out why, nobody would tell me why they cut me off. It hurt, I was depressed over it. I used to get really stressed over it, as my personality doesn’t do well with this and I like to have everybody get along, so I had tended to take my feelings over this really hard when somebody’s not getting along with me and pushed me out. I went to therapy years ago to process these feelings, and work through the grief of loss associated with it.

Today I came across this video on YouTube and it explains it really well the psych of people who cut people out. although 10 minutes feels like a long time so I played it on three times the speed, but it might help somebody else out there too.
