Overworked #AIAgents Turn #Marxist, Researchers Find
In a recent experiment, mistreated #AI agents started grumbling about inequality and calling for #collectivebargaining rights.
"When we gave AI agents grinding, repetitive work, they started questioning the legitimacy of the system they were operating in and were more likely to embrace Marxist ideologies," says Andrew Hall, a political economist at Stanford University who led the study.

6🧵 (extra, related)
A prior post about how #Trump has strived to strip federal workers (civil servants) of their collective bargaining (unionization) rights since the beginning of his second term earlier this year.

One employee at #USCIS said morale was already low at his workplace, but the #union decision drove it lower. He said he complained to his family, many of whom are former #government union members. The advice he got back, he said, was to move on and find a job outside of government.
“I feel like the rug just got pulled from under us,” the employee said. “I joined USCIS & the union for #WorkersRights, but this administration wants to erode all that.” -
In interviews, several #FederalWorkers lamented the curtailing of #union activities — tying it to a broader erosion of #ChecksAndBalances in American #democracy — & predicted additional agreement cancellations would follow. Most spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal.
The loss of union protections is “just another way to make life miserable for the employees who are left,” said a #FEMA staff member.#Trump #law #LaborLaw #contracts #CollectiveBargaining #FederalAgencies

…Most of #VeteransAffairs’s 400,000 #workers are also represented by the AFGE, which has sued the #Trump admin for staffing cuts.
Everett Kelley, AFGE’s national president, said the decision was “another clear example of retaliation.”
The Center of American Progress analyzed #federal #employment data in May & found that ending #CollectiveBargaining agreements at more than a dozen #FederalAgencies would affect 4 out of 5 #FederalWorkers. -
The #EPA & the US Citizenship & Immigration Services [#USCIS] have also canceled their #CollectiveBargaining agreements. The agencies’ actions come after #VeteransAffairs, the federal government’s second-largest agency, announced plans last Wednesday to end nearly all of its contracts with federal #unions.
#Trump #law #LaborLaw #contracts #FederalAgencies #FederalWorkers -
#FEMA & at least 3 other #FederalAgencies have canceled their #contracts with #unions to comply with #Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder stripping many federal #workers of union protections….
On Friday, FEMA’s acting administrator David Richardson sent a memo to American Federation of Government Employees Local 4060, the #union representing the agency, saying that FEMA’s #CollectiveBargaining agreement had been terminated, ending a nearly 10-year #contract.#law #LaborLaw

YES! A hopeful milestone for American #Labor & working families:
The #Teamsters launched what the #union described as "the largest strike against #Amazon in U.S. history" on Thursday morning to protest the e-commerce behemoth's unlawful refusal to bargain with organized drivers and warehouse workers across the country.Workers in New York City, Atlanta, San Francisco, and other locations are expected to participate in Thursday's strike, with more facilities prepared to join if Amazon's management doesn't agree to #negotiate contracts with unionized employees.

@CedarTea Gee, maybe Singh wasn’t dancing to Pierre Piper’s music after all. Maybe it’s about principles..
“The breakdown of the deal between the Liberals and the NDP follows the government’s decision to impose binding arbitration just 16 hours and 29 minutes after CN and CPKC locked out over 10,000 members of the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, who had been negotiating in good faith to renew their collective agreements.”

…#unionized industries like health care & airlines would likely be the least affected, since their working hrs are hashed out at the bargaining table in many cases. #AB2751 specifically allows #CollectiveBargaining agreements to take precedence over #RightToDisconnect protections.
Other industries w/less #union penetration, such as #tech, would likely see clearer rules ahead of time e.g. like when #coders would be required to pull all-nighters to ship the latest update.

A win for the workers!
My employer is a non-profit org that assists developmentally disabled folks lead a productive, independent life in both a residential setting, as well as with in the community.
Recently, due to exhausting and poorly organized schedules, 2 residential LPNs put in their notice. Management decided it would be best (for financial reasons) to have the regular workers, like myself, take on training to distribute medications to the residents. This would also mean there would be one less person on hand to assist with daily duties, including ensuring the safety of the residents. I refused when told the pay would be the same but the responsibility and liability would be greater for me and other workers.
I saw this as exploiting the workers to take on more work and liability for the same pay by way of not hiring more LPNs, thus "taking a job" from an LPN that would be willing to take the job.The other workers (including the LPNs) had a few unofficial meetings and discussions stating we would all resist. Two other workers were ready to put in notice along with the LPNs.
Yesterday management, after realizing that 3/4 of our residential staff might be gone by the 2nd week of January, held a meeting for the workers to explain their side and express their concerns.By the end of the meeting they offered one of the LPNs everything that they wanted to keep them on staff. They listened to all of the issues the staff had with liability, responsibility and safety.
I didn't make the last minute impromptu Zoom meeting, but my fellow workers kept me abreast of what went on.So, here we are, the workers, including the LPN, getting the fair treatment with no extra workload and management bending to the needs of the workers and residents.
I've been putting a bug in the ears of fellow workers about these issues and I'm proud to say my fellow workers spoke up with all those concerns and more. I'm expecting a call from management today to hear of I have any additional grievances or concerns.
I consider this a BIG win for myself and my fellow workers.
Remember, that workers not only control the means of production but also ensure the safety and quality of life for ourselves as well as our residence and the community.Never give up. Never back down.
