    “Minimum wage and the idea that hard work should lead to economic security, can be — and are being — destroyed by these A.I. systems.”

      Not A.I, just a terrible system that incentivises (and even demands for public companies) abusive behaviour.

        Yep, blaming it on A.I. is just an easy way for corporates to shift the blame to something they can’t control. A.I. is just a tool, the people using it and HOW they use it are responsible for the outcome.

          Yeah, AI is making the same practices worse, but tryijg to destroy the concept of the minimum wage goes back to at least the early 80s if not before.

      Lol. AI has so very little to do with this. That’s only mentioned because it’s the latest bogeyman.
