A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Every fucking month I go from thinking my job is okay to fucking hating it because the CEO and other executives at my company give me orders from AI, or new orders to use AI in some fantastically stupid and needles way.

FUCK AI.

And the data centers, meanwhile, are destroying the goddamn planet and making everything worse for innocent people who live near them.

FUCK. AI.

If I ignore the datacenter buildout implications and the copyright implications, access to AI facilities might be somewhat useful sometimes. But having it crammed down my throat with management second guessing my assessments of what it does makes it just insufferable.

Also, other people's AI slop is a huge workload burden too. Even if I am measured and don't use it much, that doesn't spare me from the flood of crap from my colleagues...
