An advertising company in Japan has "appointed" a robot (that they developed? really?) as their creative director. What it actually does: search advertisement databases to give suggestions. Calling it an "employee" is a publicity stunt.
- crystalmeph 11y agoYeah, it sounds like this is just a tool they're really getting a lot of use out of, so they have a giant "in-joke" that it's actually an employee.
- ansible 11y agoI'd like to see them pay income taxes for this 'employee' and do all the other paperwork needed.
- ihsw 11y agoThat employee would need a corresponding Social Security Tax Number System (SSTNS) number, and only those with resident registration are eligible. I'm not sure the government wants to collect taxes on an individual that doesn't use any social services. It would be very strange.
