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.

I was watching an astronomer's channel the other day and she brought up how automated much of the initial processes are for telescopes now. She said a similar thing, wondering if there is good information in that filtering that is never seen by the humans who view the "sanitized" end product. Any tool is useful as long as you understand its limitations and don't have blind trust. I fear that somehow most people are using AI with a blind trust of the "intelligence" part, not understanding that it's hardly perfect and often times very bad if misused. Or overused for everything.
People also forget that AI is built on a dataset built by humans and their biases.
