"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

What a bullshit arguments.

Decl. ¶¶ 19; Doe 4 Decl. ¶¶ 11. The monitoring program—announced internally as the “Model Capability Initiative”—thus captured not only employees’ work output but also their protected-leave and medical activity.

Literally in the court case papers.

You will now say this is not true ? You're AI enthusiast, Meta employee or something ?

I literally said that Meta was firing people for protected leave, disabilities, and medical issues. What I was denying is that they were firing people on the basis of "pre-diagnoses." All the complaints in the lawsuit are based on diagnoses that employees disclosed to Meta. I think that's shitty and illegal, but I don't think there is evidence that Meta is acquiring undisclosed medical information about their employees and using that for layoffs.
