Attendees of the giant, annual Dreamforce conference in San Francisco love being the butt of the joke. Last year, Seth Myers entertained them during a 40-minute set that poked fun at the tech industry’s liberal use of self-affirmations. “You are achieving, you are amplifying, you are accelerating,” Myers said. “‘Architect?’ I saw ‘architect’ used as a verb. I don’t even think architects use ‘architect’ as a verb.” 

On Thursday, the roasting came courtesy of comic John Mulaney, who, like Myers, reportedly used elements of his standard routine but leaned into roasting the tech crowd specifically, much to their delight. “Let me get this straight,” Mulaney reportedly said. “You’re hosting a ‘future of AI’ event in a city that has failed humanity so miserably?” 

Per The San Francisco Standard, Mulaney later observed that “some of the vaguest language ever devised has been used here in the last three days. The fact that there are 45,000 ‘trailblazers’ here couldn’t devalue the title any more.”
