Working with Uber’s Toxic Ai
Delivery workers are more powerful than the uber ai thinks. We can actually talk to customers and explain what is going on and why their meals are delivered too late.
Obfuscation & Ai Bureaucracy
Companies like Uber use ai solutions to manipulate workers to do impossible work tasks, while paying the least amount of pay. They use imaginary bonusses that are easy to get on paper, but almost impossible to get in practical situations, especially because the ai uses all information to refuse and deny bonuse completion towards the end of the bonus series.
If workers don’t respond to the ai in predictable ways, they are blamed and offboarded with vague bureaucratic excuses.
