Record Low Morale&#8221;<\/i><\/h6>\n<p>\n&#8220;Mark Zuckerberg\u2019s Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, is reportedly laying off 1,000 contract workers before their tasks even transition to artificial intelligence. The move is a cold, hard illustration of the future Zuckerberg imagines\u2014one where humans are expendable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What a charming vision of the future, indeed. Everyone&#8217;s buddy, Mark Zuckerberg, just gave us a glimpse of his version of the tomorrow. His tech giant, Meta Platforms (makes you wonder if he had to fight a giant sea monster to get this title), is straight-up sending 1,000 of its contract workers marching towards the door, well before their jobs get a handover session with their replacements &#8211; A.I. Of course, that&#8217;s the casual corporate way of saying, &#8220;You&#8217;ve been great, but robots are cooler.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And it&#8217;s not about downsizing or about a global pandemic eating into their coffers. Because, honestly, Meta has the kind of money that could fund a trip to Mars and back, and still leave enough to buy a small country. This isn&#8217;t an economic decision; it&#8217;s all about absolute, unquestioned automation.<\/p>\n<p>Picture this. A world where human labor is as outdated as flip phones. The day when you&#8217;re nursing your morning coffee and scrolling through Instagram, remember it\u2019s no longer Susan from the content team delivering those custom-made ads and news feeds, but a very efficient (and emotionless) AI. A world strictly managed by algorithms that don\u2019t take coffee breaks or complain about overtime.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom line, the no-holds-barred rush towards automation could mean one day soon, your boss isn&#8217;t Sally or Jim, but an AI named something like XJ-3000. An AI who doesn\u2019t share Monday blues, doesn\u2019t send you birthday cards, or empathize when you&#8217;re a little down. But hey, it would certainly help keep the virtual corridors free of pesky human emotions in the epitome of efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the Zuckerberg scheme of progress, where humans are as alluring as yesterday&#8217;s tech. Welcome to Meta&#8217;s world, where humans become not just expandable but downright disposable. Now isn&#8217;t that a future worth looking forward to?<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/meta-layoffs-bad-vibes-mark-zuckerberg-ai\/\">Read the original article here: https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/meta-layoffs-bad-vibes-mark-zuckerberg-ai\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Welcome to Zuck&#8217;s brave new world\u2014where 1,000 workers walk the plank before robots pilot the ship.
