  • Uber AI Bureaucracy

    Uber AI Bureaucracy

    uber is using ai to manipulate and deny bonus payments and hide behind thick layers of ai bureaucracy to discourage any correction of payments.

    Workers report that their work is not counted correctly. This always happens when bonus threasholds are involved: the ai is denying bonus payments to execute the prompts it’s being fed.

    sometimes the ai just makes things up to deny payment and then we have to go through uber bureaucracy for our salaries.

    However the ai is so good at hiding and obfuscating trails that it is hard to get our salaries paid, even if we know where we need to be. One of the first changes was to make stats invisible to drivers and turning off screenshots!) The advanced ai models are smarter and know more.

  • Ai Is Not Going To Save Incompetent Corporations like Uber

    Ai Is Not Going To Save Incompetent Corporations like Uber

    Ai makes bad companies worse and good companies better. Ai is not a magic solutions for everything; it’s a tool.

    Meal delivery has failed to make money for investors. Restaurants run on notoriously low margins and delivery platforms run on restaurants. You can’t pluck a bald chicken, and ai will not change that.

    Not only will ai not make meal delivery a high margins business, it will make things worse for delivery companies like uber. Meal delivery is a highly specialized job and riders have a lot of agency over the work. Forcing riders to adhere to a manipulative ai will not work. Without adequate pay expert delivery workers will simply slow down their work effort.

    Conclusion Delivery

    It seems that the corporate delivery industry that is made up of companies like ubereats, deliveroo and takeaway has come to its logical conclusion: the end of corporate food delivery by ai.

    What companies will take their place?
