I hate AI CS with a passion. It has neither the information or the authority to be effective.

- AlecSchueler 1y agoI've known so many people who were destroyed by customer service work in call centres though. Most turned to drugs, some to suicide, the lucky few made it out but still carry the trauma. Timed toilet breaks, eight hours of angry customers, for basically minimum wage with no benefits. It's one of the worst environments for a person to be in and seeing it become automated I'm definitely aware of there being upsides as well.
- griffzhowl 1y agoThat's only an upside if there are better alternatives for those people. If there are only worse alternatives, then obviously it's worse I've worked in call centres a couple of times and found it depressing, but I've also worked in a restaurant washing dishes on sixteen hour shifts. To be honest, call centre was better
- AlecSchueler 1y agoWhere is the line of what you find acceptable then? As long as there's no a alternative anything is ok? Like I get what you're saying but some work is just cruel.
- griffzhowl 1y agoYes, and some work is crueller than others. What I'm saying is there's no upside to just getting rid of an option
