I know the article is seemingly hopeful. But that's 30% of the time they don't need an employee.

In its most recent cost-cutting measures in November, the company laid off roughly 17% of its global full-time employees as well as reducing its monthly expenditures.

AI is not a revolution for the working class, and it never will be. I'm tired of having this argument that 'I don't understand AI' or that 'It's good for humanity.'

It's good for capitalists and that's fucking it. Cheap and compliant labor is all they fucking want. If they can replace you with a bot that will do the work basically for free, they will.

This isn't rocket science, nor is it unprecedented. This idea that "AI will save us" is about as true as "Arbeit Macht Frei".

AI will be used to undervalue your labor, and push you to beg to deregulate just to be able to survive.

yes but it doesn't always feel like it.

LinkedIn feels like Uncanny Valley social media.

Like there are Alternates there trying to imitate human interactions.

'LinkedIn'

LinkedIn is as much Social Media as talking with your manager is Socializing.

It's really plastic and fake feeling there, more so than anywhere else.

I think we're the "left wing morons" that are being referred to here.

> Work at mcdonalds

> All out of burgers until the delivery in 2 hours.

> Still breakfast hours.

> Guy rolls up "Yeah can I get a cheeseburger"

> Shocked at his question.

> Just flat out say "no."

> Awkward silence

> Car Drives off

> 2 hours later get delivery

Do you think someone would do that? just go on the internet and tell lies?

Sounds like hes being used, unfortunately.

Get some trust, abuse some emotional weakness then skirt on by without working on a group project at all.

The amount of group projects where people have found some way to not be involved yet get credit anyway is unbelievable.
