    I’d have to disagree with that. If you don’t have enough trust in your managers to talk to them directly about toxicity, stress, and overload, then how on earth would you trust them to monitor all of your communications to determine the same? I suspect that the actual result would be that all employees would be sure to only discuss sensitive matters in-person or through some non-monitored channel, while looking for another job elsewhere. Also, call me cynical, but I’ve seen enough leadership decisions that are ‘we’ve asked for all these powers, but don’t worry, we promise not to abuse them!’ that they did, in fact, turn out to abuse.

    And after reading all the stories about AI’s copyright-infringing ways, slurping up decades of Twitter and Reddit comments, you’d trust the authors to ‘keep it on site’ and ‘forget everything on demand’?

      AIs don’t judge, don’t remember and don’t hold anything against me, so I’d rather have an AI screening my stuff than a human - especially my superiors.

      And yes, I trust an AI I run myself. I know they don’t phone home (because they literally can’t) and don’t remember anything unless I go through the effort to connect something like a Chroma or Weaviate vector database, which I then also host and manage myself. The beauty of open source. I would certainly never accept using GPT-4 or Bard or some other 3rd party cloud solution for something this sensitive.

        They do judge, in the sense that managers are going to want statistics and those stats are going be interpreted a certain way. It’s a “numbers don’t lie or show bias, but anything lower than a 7/10 is bad according to humans” situation.
