Your work email, slack, google drive, or any other account given to you by your job should not be expected to be private.
There’s a small legal carve out for health data through your employer health insurance and one or two others probably, but its well within your company’s rights to see the communications that are done through company resources.
Work in security.
We have been able to do this since the beginning. No need to clutch your pearls.
It is just https traffic. We have been collecting and decrypting this since the late 2000s.
Remember, your work computer is not at all private. We have telemetry on EVERYTHING you do with your Corp laptop. Been this way for a long time.
I am so done with the software industry
Not one metric has ever once failed to be weaponized by management. The main decision we make at my company to determine what metrics are even allowed to be used is “are we willing to give any random manager the ability to fire someone from our own personal staff because of this reason.”
This is the type of news that makes me smile. Yes. I would love for these hack AI regurgitating “consultants” LARPing as CEO’s on LinkedIn to ruin their businesses because they don’t understand basic social psychology. I’d love for my competitors to blindly allow their management to engage with this practice. I’m sick of these mouthbreathers having the funds to engage with my company and wasting my management staff’s time trying to sell them on frivolous bullshit. Become insolvent and go bag fries FFS.
Anthropic says Smart Reports shouldn’t be used to evaluate employees, then lets management attach names to their Claude sessions. Apparently workplace surveillance becomes ethical if you put a disclaimer on it. The real innovation here is outsourcing micromanagement to the machine.
AI can make decisions and micromanage. What’s stopping the higher ups from replacing lower management now?
They have to keep underlings around or they’re next on the chopping block
As I understand it this exact application of AI is currently prohibited by the EU.
Kissassery, mostly. Why have one AI inflate your ego when you can have twelve department heads and one AI stroke your ego?
Pretty sure you can‘t do that in the EU. Your boss is not even allowed to give AI details about you or consult it about you. The thought that Anthropic wants Claude to become your supervisor is deranged and dystopian.
