Your Future Boss Might Be Software: Algorithmic management in companies like Uber, Amazon, and warehouses

from Ctrl Alt Society · host Halifax Studios

Who is actually in charge of your workday? For millions of workers at Uber, Amazon, and global warehouse hubs, the "boss" isn't a person—it's a set of self-learning algorithms.In this episode of Ctrl Alt Society, we go behind the screen to explore the "Black Box" of modern management. We break down how software now handles hiring, firing, and real-time discipline, and why the OECD reports that nearly 80% of workplaces have already integrated at least one form of algorithmic oversight.
