Working people are worried about what an AI future would look like. Not doomsday—but privacy, discrimination and job replacement.

That’s why America’s unions fight for AI guardrails in the workplace and in our contracts to protect our jobs and rights.

I've started seeing an anti-AI "Fintech expert" showing up regularly in my LinkedIn feed, usually shared by anti-AI people. The posts sounded like slop, so I checked, and yep, you guessed it.

One of the things about people who don't use AI is that they have no idea what AI sounds like.

101 antitrust initiatives on generative AI by antitrust agencies, Feb 2023 to July 2026.

➝ 2023: United States 7, Europe 7.
➝ 2026 (ongoing): Europe 15, United States 1.

Every enforcement action in the database since November 2025 is European.
A Database of Antitrust Initiatives Targeting Generative AI - Network Law Review
Antitrust agencies are increasingly interested in generative AI. This can be good news. As Sandy Pentland and I wrote last year (here), the competitive dynamics in this space can be supported by a careful antitrust agenda. While the AI Act should be improved if the EU wants innovation to flourish (see this article), enforcement actions […]

4) Data center boosters use this industrial history as propaganda, claiming AI will make PA great again and bring stable jobs to the area. People are, rightly, skeptical. 5) People want a bright future for themselves and their families- but do not see AI/data centers as the way to achieve that

The scum also rises.
"One contractor said they see people using AI “all the time and people are let go for it all the time, it’s pretty much the one thing that will get you kicked off ASAP.” The person said, “in a group of thousands there are tons that have been caught.”
