Excerpt: "The AI system, called BK Assistant, compiles "friendliness scores" at the fast-food chain's locations based on employees' conversations, according to a promotional video the company shared with the BBC.

"The chain is currently piloting the system at 500 US restaurants, a spokesperson for Burger King said.

"The company says the technology is not designed to 'record conversations or evaluate individual employees'." [Yeah, right, sure...]

I'm dismayed at some of the people on the #left throwing shade at #decentralization as "some #libertarian noise." Like, this is literally people #seizing the #means of mass communication, and these people are opting to side with the #profiteers because apparently it turns out the #proles are actually scary.
The ideal socialist condition would be independent communities self-governing and engaging in mutual aid. How the hell does #Twitter fit that model even *remotely* better than #Mastodon?
