Lets try it. I am willing to start a worker coop headed by votes and an AI. Fuck it.
Comment on AI will reduce workforce, say 41% of execs in a survey

41% execs think that a huge amount of class power will go from workers in general to AI specialists (and probally the companies they make or that hire them).
I personally can’t wait for a lot these businesses that bet on the wrong people to replace turn around and form new competition but with this new tech filling in the gaps of middle management, hr, execs, etc.
I mean its fucking meme, but an AI assisted workplace democracy seems alright to me on paper (the devils in details).

Execs don’t give a shit. They simply double down on the false cause fallacy instead. A no long would they ever admit they fucked up.
The company I work last year went through a run of redundancies, claiming AI and system improvements were the cause. Before this point we were growing (slowly) year on year. Just not growing fast enough for the shareholders.
They cut too deep, shit is falling apart, and we’re loosing bids to competitors. Now they’ve doubled down on AI, claiming blindness to the systems issues they created, and just made an employee’s “Can Do” attitude a performance goal.

Optimising for the oblivious or unscrupulous, nice.
