A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Says you. I just got back from a trip where I watched a lady hand key 100 workers hand written time cards into a computer system. I’m sure that person would be much more content if she wasn’t sitting in a cave all day slowly giving herself carpal tunnel.
The better way would be to leverage technology so workers could scan themselves in, then train the admin to review for anomalies.
You're both right because you're talking about completely different things.
No, we must return to the traditional system: old-timey mechanical punch card systems - literally punch in, punch out.
I have this wonderful image of people working at a software company being forced, for some stupid reason, to use an actual mechanical punchclock system.
