Comment on The AI-powered collapse of the American tech workfoce
audaxdreik@pawb.social 2 weeks agoMy last job tracked it, because of course they did. They could tell how often we logged into the AI tools and how many queries we ran a week and if we didn’t hit a certain number, we were reprimanded.
It was a support job. They wanted us running customer tickets to train the AI, we were basically training our replacement. And it’s obvious to everyone, we’re not stupid, so morale was absolutely in the fucking gutter.

I just got recruited into a workgroup assigned to get AI tools together to perform one of the job functions we have in all our teams. We were told it’s on the down-low for now because people are of course concerned about job security, but this is all really to guarantee they have job security.
I was like… blink… wut.
Nothing like being told to ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears.
