I have masking tape in my lunchbox to tape over the lens and am in the process of informing people their biometric data is being stored somewhere without their knowledge and consent. I have a Union backing me. I imagine I'll be putting my notice in the next few weeks, getting fired or getting bought out.
Removing down-time and increasing efficiency is great. Does that mean the employee is delivering more value to justify a higher wage?
Kinda think my employer doesn't have a leg to stand on since they were supposed to blur out our faces in the agreement.
No. In most cases workmanship has gone astray. But production seems to be at higher degree of desire regardless of the quality. Im shocked by how much the common foot soldier in the construction world is getting paid. Many of the trades that once were considered a form of art have become a thing of the past. Brick laying has given way to stone veneer. Similar cost in labor, but half the talent needed. Trim carpentry.... same.
Not a teacher.
Ours is capable of the same thing. If you clip a curb, accelerate through a turn a little too fast, even move your eyes to look at the side mirror, sudden stops, accelerate a little too hard, it sends an alert to mid and upper management.
I assume it was a barb at me. Little does he know I'm not a member of the union.
You do realize there is a difference between facial recognition and AI facial recognition right? And it's not like I agree with the government or corporations spying on citizens. I'm against that. This is a little more invasive. Learned today they have zoom meetings every week and pull up everyone's faces and go over shit.
Dude, its a camera. New cars have them installed to know which settings to use for the driver. I bet you have a smartphone, it already spies on you more than your employer, and I'm sure it uses some kind of ai recognition to feed you ads. Your employer owns the equipment. Like I said earlier, if you have a problem with this I bet you have something to hide.
govern me harder big government… grow a pair
The AI wave is here, and it’s not slowing down. You’ve got two choices: go off-grid, buy land in the mountains, build a cabin, grow your own food, hunt for meat, and ditch the internet forever.
Dude, it's not just a camera.
I am assigned a truck. It only saves my Foreman about 20 seconds to no longer manually enter it unless it is wrong in identifying one of us.
Buy your own truck and go independent. You're paying a price for union dues and wages. In some ways, I don't blame them. Last night I saw a trucker weaving back and forth and straddling the center line on the interstate just north of Omaha. In the past I've called 911 and followed guys like that until a trooper could show up. There's no way in hell I would want to run any kind of truck line. Too much liability and too many guys that do stupid stuff. Then there's the accidents that happen from other crappy drivers. My independent grain hauler had a car swerved over and tore his front bumper off. She swore he was at fault until somebody that witnessed the wreck (and thankfully actually stopped) refuted her story. He would have been screwed if not for the witness.
Why has worker productivity increased? Are the workers themselves working that much harder or is it the technology that has made them more productive?
“As long as youre not doing anything wrong” …what an Absolute classic line of sheep welcoming in tyranny.
Were the women fuzzy before or after the drinking?
What does work have to do with it. The TSA scans everyone at most airports.
public outcry eventually got the traffic speed cams in Sioux City removed. Some of it is stupid freaking people who won't slow down in construction zones. Now that the construction is done and the speed cams are gone, traffic is back up to 10-15 mph over the speed limit. It's crazy. When people flaunt the laws, they have to find ways to protect public safety. Traffic cams have allowed the recovery of many abducted children. I don't like them.....until they allow us to solve serious crimes.
the cat is out of the bag and it can be used for good or evil....kind of like the ability of the government to tax us for things other than national defense.
Taxes have become outright criminal. Hopefully this gets corrected soon as more and more are becoming aware of the grift
Yeah the company using surveillance in a vehicle is just creepy but I understand why they do it. No doubt Bruce is a model employee but damn there's some bad actors out there. I haven't had employees for a long time in part because of the liability and gubment paperwork.
Doge is working on it. The other dirty little secret is that inflation was purposeful over the past 3-4 years to try to inflate our way out of our ridiculous debt situation. As I told a banker the other day, 10 million dollars isn't what it used to be. Even with the stock market run up, inflation is eating away at it's real value. Inflation and even the wage inflation has moved people up in tax brackets as well. Property taxes have had corresponding inflation as well.
If you are driving a company vehicle...they have a right to know where it's going, who is in it, when it's being used, etc...
g Policy" for them).
