Capitalism remains a problem.
I don't think worker owner businesses would be so rabidly eager to do this AI shit. It's ghouls and anonymous shareholders. People who don't even work on the stuff being made.
Worker owned co-ops are definitely less prone to this kind of nonsense.
If by worker owner businesses you mean petit bourgeoisie, then that's not correct. They have been doing this too
No, I meant one where the business is owned by all the workers, not one where the owner also does some work.
Yeah that sounds like a worker cooperative (co-op).
All the workers in the company, or all the workers, period?
Internal democracy within entities that still have the same rapacious, anti-social incentives against broader society as traditional businesses won't get you far. At best it might slow down the process of turning those within into faithful heralds of the algorithm of capital.
