Here's an interesting side effect of AI's intrusion in human resources. Everyone who reads this knows I'm an independent contractor, and working with HR has always been a struggle. Every company works differently. One thing I've noticed, is that now rather than directly contacting me, HR will reach out to executive management personally who will reach out to a direct report who will reach out to a direct report who will reach out to me. If there's a problem we scroll all the way back up that list and all the way back down every time.

I won't lie - it's a screaming pain in the ass. But, I understand the problem they're trying to solve. I also don't have a better solution for that problem.

@Sempf@infosec.exchange Isn't that the definition of bureaucracy? And then you get points for being the fist to report to the top.

That is, indeed, the definition of bureaucracy.

Honestly how far are we from simply having to have a digital ID that can be traced back to us in order to work in this country? Or in the world? I do not want to see that happen, but I cannot see any other way out of this.

@Sempf@infosec.exchange Everything can be traced already - for a price. A digital ID will just make it easier.

@AAKL@infosec.exchange Oh I know that. It's just a bridge too far for me. I got to draw a red line somewhere, and that's one of my red lines.
