Tell HN: Y Combinator backing AI company to abuse factory workers

Optifye.ai is a dystopian company backed by Y Combinator. They’re using AI to further dehumanise and abuse individual factory workers and treat them like disposable automatons. See a now deleted post where they show how it works: https://ift.tt/zckf5Ta The founders look to be a couple of rich kids with little world and work experience: > We’re CS grads from Duke and because our families run manufacturing companies (…) They also display a profound lack of empathy by bragging about lowering stress for rich company owners, which they do by increasing the stress of everyone who works for them: > Know any manufacturing company owners? > Let us know at founders@optifye.ai, and we’ll help them drop their cortisol levels :) https://ift.tt/dj2Y1XC This is the AI world we all know is coming, brought to you by Y Combinator investors and founders. It doesn’t “benefit humanity”, it just serves to “put you in your place”.
