Well not being terrified of technology would be a good resource

    I'm a huge fan of AI, but come on... It's being used in the most reckless and insane ways. It's so insanely destructive to society

    Our experience so far has not been that AI is capable of or going to replace our labor. However, the threat of AI and the use of AI mandates has been used already to drive down wages, institute speedups, and generally degrade our working conditions.

    Have you noticed how a lot of software has been getting worse, like way buggier? How three times now, huge swaths of the Internet have gone down?

    It's because tech companies keep laying people off. They're already operating a skeleton crew, and now they're trying to replace portions of that skeleton crew with AI

    And already, it's not working.

    At this rate, remotely complicated software is going to become a lost technology

    The problem is if we're not just saying "yes" to everything, especially AI, we're sidelined and ignored. So what inevitably happens is there is a bifurcation of the employee base between those who have actual principles and experience enough to see the bullshit and enshittification that CEOs are doing with "AI", and those who will continue to lick their boots in order to get paid. "AI" is yet another in a long line of divisive tools that leadership are happy to employ.

    This is a cool resource, I just wish my coworkers cared enough to organize. Tried and failed already.
