@forrester Having trouble finding an old issue of the Forrester Report I would like to cite for a paper. Might I be able to talk to a research librarian or someone in-house for help? Thanks!

Attention aspiring scholars in Work & Employment and Industrial Relations... Just one week remains until the deadline for @cornellilr #PhD program applications. #GlobalLaborandWork

[Adam Seth Litwin @ProfASLitwin]

...and btw... how fabulous is it that @JustineBateman is a super well-informed, articulate, computer scientist with a deep understanding of Hollywood labor relations? That made me smile.

[Adam Seth Litwin @ProfASLitwin]

@sagaftra members will be right both to ratify this agreement AND to question the sufficiency of its #AI protections. #AI exemplifies the need for ongoing vigilance and negotiation around all sorts of work-related issues. @JustineBateman

“If professors abdicate their responsibility to ensure the freedom of all their students to speak their minds, what happens in the classroom hardly deserves the name of higher education.”
Honored to sign onto this some of my @Cornell colleagues.

So many questions about this thing I found in the coffee/copy room just now. Did the person initially leave an entire cookie, thinking that someone should simply claim it in its entirety?Did the person who took the bite think that others would come take bites of their own? Etc…

OK... Here are some new "classes" of jobs that #AI may well bring about...

Offering some thoughts on the UAW negotiations and strike action:

[Adam Seth Litwin @ProfASLitwin]

Unions need to get involved early in negotiating new technologies... and the @UAW and @WGAWest @WGAEast @sagaftra strikes make clear that labor gets it.

Story quotes me, @TomKochan, @daronacemogIu, and Lisa Kresge.

How concerned should we be that #AI will reduce demand for frontline service-sector labor? I think I'm OK with it—certainly in this #LaborMarket.
Welcome to the drive-through, can AI take your order?
