This is the most dystopian thing I've seen all week, and I'm living in 2026 America so that's *saying something*

@kyleford and the default way to get paid is via crypto…

@mariyadelano bleak times

@kyleford@hachyderm.io
Neither are the bosses for every Amazon Warehouse employee or delivery driver. They're all humans that are being directed and instructed by AI.

I wasn't trying to argue your point because I think your point is a fair one, just pointing out that we have had what you're describing for the past 5-10 years already so this is nothing new.

@gme ha this is (sadly) fair!

@kyleford @jonlawrence lol nice try, JB!

@kyleford Bloody hell!

@kyleford OMG. “The Meatspace Layer for AI.” Women are used to being treated like pieces of meat. How do you men like it?

@kyleford It's a transparent psy-op too.

Like those fake job listings every job market is stuffed with.

Bullshit from end to end.

Hint: "AI Agents" don't actually exist. It's just chatbots with a name change.

@kyleford I have hard time believe this is real and not a (way too much) elaborated joke.

@kyleford I'm pretty sure this is what @pluralistic was talking about when he used the term Reverse Centaur. Now I'm picturing a world where people accomplish random inscrutable tasks in the real world dictated by AI slop bots and they have no way of knowing what they just did. Isn't this part of the plot of the Severance TV show? Please, don't create the Torment Nexus

@kyleford
Step 1: Take a job from rentahuman.ai
Step 2: Do nothing or do it intentionally wrong.
Step 3: Report it ready.
Step 4: If the AI complains, say thanks for pointing out your mistake and repeat indefinitely from Step 2.
