Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

AI is a broad field. The same equipment runs ML, molecular combinatorics, factory robotics, symbolic processing, image analysis, and mega-multivariable processing. I don't even see LLMs as significant consumers of the available processing power. That's the foam on top of the ocean for the large buildouts. A use for the unused capacity leftover in between actual workloads. But it is the visible part. The fact that a digital twin of a bridge doesn't spark your imagination is an indicator of this.
