By Mike Elgan Meetings have been problematic for decades. They’re often used as a catch-all solution to unresolved problems.

Now, in a post-pandemic remote work world, where hybrid work and flex work are common, meetings are turning into something like an ongoing crisis at many organizations. They’re harming productivity and causing havoc with employee morale. And yet with many remote workers saying they feel disconnected, the misguided consensus is that even more meetin...

By Jon Gold Scale AI, the data processing company that advertises itself as a way to train generative AI on higher-quality information, has apparently shut down access to its platform in several countries, leaving gig workers in the lurch.

GenAI is also expected to “democratize jobs.” That is, the technology will enable employees without computer science degrees to create applications using AI-augmented coding. Already, many companies see tha...

By Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols The business environment is better than ever, but that isn't stopping many tech companies from laying off employees. At the same time, numerous other organizations — often poorly run ones — insist remote workers return to the office (RTO) in the name of better productivity. The reality is that incompetent leaders are scapegoating employees working from home for bad company performance. And then, there are the companies doing both. Dell is the latest example of a business that appears to be trying to force workers back into the office with the ulterior motive of get...
