I found out the other day that Numerical Control - ie CNC machines - were pushed by the US Air Force as a means to break shop floor unions. The early ones had no economic advantage but DID shift the type of labour from the floor to the office (who weren’t unionised).Just a fun thought when one considers “software is eating the world” and AI/ML trends.#Union #Tech #AIEthics
