  1. Are there really more heists lately? If so, is it because thieves are smarter with prosthetic intelligence? Could that smartness also get them legitimate jobs? www.dw.com/en/italy-thi... #AIEthics #FutureOfWork #FoW

  3. Further fuelling my suspicion that most “AI” redundancies [UK] layoffs [US] have nothing to do with AI, but rather try to shield either bad economic news or simple downsizing with a façade of modernisation. #AIEthics #FoW

    Amazon to cut 14,000 corporate jobs amid AI investment

    Amazon hired as its delivery demand peaked during the COVID pandemic, meaning analysts anticipated layoffs.

  4. Holly Cummins #gotoCPH just said software isn't going away for the same reason I always say jobs aren't going away – increased demand by reduction of costs. #FoW #FutureOfWork

  5. If anyone wants an editorial about tiktok, labour, IP, AI and the strikes in Berlin and London (any other locations?) @ankehassel.bsky.social and I have written one but are having trouble penetrating the AI-overloaded submission systems… #digitalGovernance #tikTok #IP #AIEthics #FoW #geoeconomics

  6. To be fair, content moderation is terrible work we all want ai assistance for. Has anyone written about ideal, just AI migration? How long should former employees get royalties on their data? How many employees should be retained? How should they be protected whilst responsible & effective? #fow 1/2

  7. Something from yesterday's discussion of that MIT study. I replied "And what if there are diverse / differentiated outcomes? Can people (and school systems) handle it if there are only some people who learn some things better when using technology?" which led to a discussion... 1/2? #AIEthics #FoW

  8. This one is great on #AIEthics #FoW but I think it attributes too much to capitalism, not enough to the US, which I agree with the article I've linked it under, might just be hampered by its size

  9. #GS2025 has panel launching their Digital Infrastructure Solutions to Empower Citizens: A Toolkit for Policy Makers. That panel & the previous on #FoW is going the direction @helenamalikova.bsky.social & I started mapping in 2021 www.hertie-school.org/en/news/deta... We're still happy to help! #DPI

  10. DuoLingo: we're not going to cut any jobs, but we want to use AI to limit how much more hiring we have to do while still growing and addressing "bottlenecks" that used to make us hire consultants. AI panic monkeys: DuoLingo are cutting jobs!!! #AIEthics #FutureOfWork #FoW

  11. For 5 years I paid off college loans by making computers do things. Every year I used a new trendy term for my job on my tax forms. But I've always thought of myself as a programmer. Spoiler: here programmers are mere minions of devs, & may be losing out to #genAI. #giftArticle #FoW wapo.st/4iAdDSw

  12. For the five years I paid of my college loans by making computers do things for local traders, I used to entertain myself by coming up every year with a new trendy term for what I did when filling in my tax forms. But I've always thought of myself as a programmer. Spoiler: in this article programmers are mere minions of developers, and seem to be getting replaced by #genAI.

  13. The first time I heard someone say this, it was Eric Schmidt talking about replacing the military’s “valuable eyes”. I asked a question that basically perfectly predicted what happened to Israel 7 October 2023. 1/2

  14. AI might end up creating more jobs than it ends - and these jobs in particular should be safest

  16. "The intensification 90 programme will sharply raise labour productivity, releasing about 100,000 people (who will be occupied in more creative endeavours)"

    I met a Russian couple at the Dec 2022 @20percentberlin
    party, who'd fled the war through Uzbekistan. As I (& a Bulgarian couple) struggled to understand, they said "Watch the BBC Trauma Zone. Then you'll know Russia." The 2nd episode includes an attempt to digitise "the plan" of the planned economy. #FoW #democracy

  25. Automation also benefited people with disabilities during the industrial revolution. Some tides raise the floor while dropping the median. #mixedMetaphors #FoW mastodon.social/@tiffanycli/10
