Boss: I gave you an AI, so I expect you to be more productive
Worker: But the AI system doesn’t help me that much, and sometimes it makes it worse
Boss: It’s helping that person over there…
Person over there: *hides hours of uncompensated labor*
@Riedl @chrisoffner3d This is almost exactly what happened to friends of mine who worked 15 years ago as medical transcriptionists after a local local large medical center bought speech recognition software. Even though the software didn't work well, the managers raised productivity requirements.
5 years later they eliminated most of the jobs.
@twitskeptic @Riedl @chrisoffner3d And where are your friends now 10 years later?
@crude2refined @Riedl @chrisoffner3d Most of the ones I know were forced into early retirement. A couple worked for awhile as scribes at perhaps 1/2-2/3 their previous compensation.
