AI doesn’t mind working in the office and works 24/7, I’d tread lightly here if I was a knowledge worker. There are much worse things than being asked to come to the office to work. Like being told you aren’t needed at all ever again.
- rybosworld 3y agoWhat a nonsensical line of reasoning.
- trts 3y agoare you suggesting that a worker who does not protest an arbitrary mandate to log onto their computer at a specific corporate office building, would receive greater clemency from the management team when the opportunity arises to replace them with automation?
- bcrosby95 3y agoCompanies aren't a charity. The minute knowledge workers can be replaced with AI they will be. Regardless of how much you obey your masters.
- ThorsBane 3y agoWhen that happens, it’s because AI is doing all labor. That point is the singularity.
- VincentEvans 3y agoSilliness. Willingness to come to office, or wear a tie, or carry a briefcase - will have about as much effect on pushing back progress as puffing your cheeks out to blow away a hurricane.
- 0fox 3y agoYour argument is that employers will eventually have the leverage to say, “come in to the office or else we’ll replace you with AI”. If it becomes overwhelmingly obvious that AI is the more cost-effective employee, then it won’t come to that; employers will just replace their employees with AI. Office presence is completely unrelated.
- taftster 3y agoMy ability to work in an office efficiently or at home efficiently has zero bearing on whether my job can be replicated by an AI. - If a job can be outsourced, it will be outsourced. - If a job can be eliminated, it will be eliminated. - If a job can be replaced by AI, it will be replaced by AI. Work location does not factor on these decisions. It's just simply an evaluation of production efficiency.
- roarcher 3y agoIf they're ever in a position to replace me with AI, they'll do it regardless of where I'm working from. Might as well enjoy WFH while I can.
