Gizmodo: CNBC Accidentally Admits Why Employers Love AI. “Why do employers love AI? The official story is that it increases productivity, an assertion that has yet to be proven true. But a financial expert on CNBC spoke candidly on Friday about how the rate of wage growth has plummeted this year. And he pointed to the fear workers have of asking for a raise when they could be replaced with AI.”

#Meta is reportedly sending #mixedmessages to #employees about #AIusage. While the company is discouraging #tokenmaxxing and removing AI usage from performance evaluations, it is encouraging employees to use its new AI platform, #Hatch, which consumes #moretokens than standard #AItools. This has led to concerns among employees about job security, as #heavyAIusage is still a part of Meta’s #workplaceculture. https://gizmodo.com/meta-is-reportedly-sending-mixed-messages-to-employees-on-tokenmaxxing-2000806644?eicker.news #tech #news #ainews

Weird idea to stop #waste, #fraud, and, #abuse of #taxpayer #money.

If a #corporation's #employees qualify for #government #assistance, the corporation is required to #reimburse the assistance #program for #benefits disbursed, plus an additional percentage to cover the #cost of overhead and collection of money owed.

This would apply to employees working 30+ hours/week or who work any number of hours while holding multiple jobs.

I love my neighbors, but my #tax dollars should not be subsidizing #corporate #profit.

Any company making outrageous claims about #ai or their use of should be labeled as an #aislopshop or #slopshop for short.

Like calling a dishonest lawyer a #shyster or a newspaper with no credibility, a #rag.

Fantastic. Inspirational, that MD introduced a bill to make this easier. Cautionary, that insurance companies haven't heard of these. GOOD NEWS STORY will send you into the weekend w/ a smile.

"#Workers in the #US have an estimated $50bn-plus #stolen from them every year, according to the #Economic #Policy #Institute, surpassing all #robberies, #burglaries and motor vehicle #thefts #combined. The majority of these stolen #wages are never recovered by workers.

Between 2017 to 2020, $3.24bn in stolen wages were recovered by the US Department of Labor, state labor departments and attorney generals, and through class- and collective-action litigation.

#Wage theft disproportionately affects lower-wage workers, women, people of color, and immigrant workers, and negatively affects local #economies and #tax #revenues.

There are numerous forms of wage theft, from #employers not #compensating workers for time #worked, #violating minimum #wage and #overtime #laws, misclassifying #employees as independent #contractors, not providing #legally required meal breaks, confiscating worker tips, or illegally taking #deductions from worker wages."

A #WorkEnvironment that encourages #employees to have respectful debates through multiple channels and where employees are enabled to communicate directly and openly in a #PsychologicallySafe space will help reduce any feelings of #contention and #misunderstandings.

Here are 13 recommendations from @Forbes Human Resources Council members for helping employees successfully navigate office #politics—even in a #remote setting.

A difficult decision to set us up for the future

"#Sundar sent the following email to #Google #employees earlier today.
#Googlers,
I have some difficult #news to share. We’ve decided to reduce our #workforce by approximately 12,000 roles. We’ve already sent a separate email to employees in the #US who are affected. In other countries, this process will take longer due to local laws and practices."
