AI-obsessed executives and managers are creating a distinct new type of toxic work environment for the slop era, workers told us.

    Is this what it felt like in the 70s when you found Dianetics on your boss’s desk?

    Sounds like proof that companies can safely replace bosses with AI

      This is happening at my company, but the CEO owns the company so there is no replacing him no matter how AI crazy he gets.

    I love how these articles go out of their way to find the most extreme edge cases and then create headlines that while technically correct, are clearly lacking context and designed to rile up the anti AI crowd. And the communities just fall for it hook line and sinker.

      That is too bad for you, because there are plenty of articles full of hard evidence AI is a scam and massive bubble.

      Maybe try doing your homework before quipping about this?

    1. People hear and believe what they want to believe.
    2. People don’t listen to or consider the weight of evidence. If I go into a presentation and say “It’s not a strong study, and maybe 20% valid, but it says AB does C.” Everyone will walk out of that room assuming AB does C.

    Now let loose those same people with AI…

Welcome to Enshittification

A community for everyone who misspelt it as enshitification.

“I the onceler felt sad as I watched them all go, but business is business and business must grow, regardless of crummies in tummies you know.”

This is your space to document the decay, demise, and destruction of the tech world as we know it. Share stories, articles, and firsthand experiences that capture the ongoing decline of once-celebrated platforms, services, and companies in the late stage capitalist landscape.

From monopolistic corporate shifts to anti-user updates and the relentless pursuit of profit over quality—if it’s broken, bloated, or just plain bad, it belongs here. We’re here to spotlight the moves that make the tech world worse, one piece of enshittification at a time.

For some more positive takes
!disenshittify@lemmy.cafe !deshittification@thebrainbin.org

Guidelines
🔹 Stay on Topic: Only post content about the decline of tech products, platforms, or companies.
🔹 Quality Content: Give some context when posting links or articles to drive quality discussions.
🔹 Respectful Discussion: Critique companies, crappy tech, and capital, not community members.
🔹 Positive Monday: The first Monday of every month is reserved for positive content only that shows enshittification isn’t inevitable.

Join us to expose the changes that ruin the things we once loved and to discuss what comes next in a tech world gone wrong.
