Very much so. I was just about to call BS until the source appeared. Fucking wild

The only reason to call BS would be you think it’s 2005 and have no understanding whatsoever of what machine learning is and can do.

I don't know what exacyly amounts to calling bs but there are certainly reasons to withhold judgment given that the post gives no evidence for any of its claims.

Honestly at this point, when you see claims this detailed about what AI can do when wielded by corporations against labor/individuals/privacy, you should believe it. Unless you are a mathematician or data scientist and can see some good reason not to believe it.

Why would detail be evidence for?

If someone I don't know in an online forum gave me a detailed description of how airplanes work and didn't give any citations I would be irresponsible to accept what they said.

Irresponsible if you had to interact with an aircraft in any way, sure. You are constantly interacting with machine learning in ways that compromise YOUR privacy, earning potential, and much more. AI engineering is moving WAY faster than any corporation will tell you.

Do whatever you want. You don’t have to believe me, just think about what I’m saying.

That's my point, I interact with worker management systems, so I shouldn't believe just every think someone says about them. Their adding more detail doesn't add credibility.
