Ep 323 - Chatbots Aren't Therapists

from Work Stoppage Hosted by workstoppage

Our main stories this week start with an investigation by Capital and Main into Kaiser Permanente's deployment of AI chatbots in their mental health division, to the alarm of actual mental health professionals. The struggle at Starbucks hit a new level as Starbucks Workers United announced an indefinite, nationwide boycott of the company until they agree to a fair contract, with major unions signing on. ICE continues to attack workers around the country, with California vineyard workers suddenly facing threats of raids after they started the process to unionize. We've also got headlines from Olympia Fields Hospital, the Seattle Public School District, Wingstop, Cisco, and Chisago County public workers.
