Business is great, which is why it's so hard on me to let half of you go ...

@anodyne I am of the opinion that AI and UBI need to be a package deal. This kind of thing is only going to get worse as AI gets better. UBI or rejection of AI will be the only viable options.

Hope this isn't the company you work for and all's well with you.

100% on UBI. I work in tech, but not for Block. So, for today, I'm fine. Thanks.

@StarsSuck I was drafted and went for my pre induction physical at the famed,of Alice's Restaurant, Whitehall Street pre induction Center. That was pretty scary. Ended up failing the physical.

@Jett129 Hope they didn't send you to the "Group W" bench

[Jett129]

@nurunuru Nope,but we were warned against anyone trying any shenanigans.

I think rejection of AI is actually the play here. Its energy use is completely unsustainable.

@sabergirl I’m on board with this.

@popvulture really glad I read that yesterday. My phone updated last night and if I’d not been lucky enough to read your comment yesterday I’d have had a nightmare trying to figure that out thank you!

@sabergirl Energy use or the cost. Every company is losing money and economies of scale don't work for AI.
