We have lots of (correct) criticisms of generative AI from a labor perspective. But here's a management one, too: You can and will discipline labor. Human beings can be manipulated through material and psychological incentives. But what if your "workers" are software owned by another capitalist?

Wizbit and Paul Daniels: 80s Magic Show
Alt: A GIF showing Wizbit, a conical yellow alien covered in stars and moons, with a face and very active puppet eyebrows, and legs wearing striped tights. Actually played by someone in a costume in the British 80s TV program of the same name, which also starred magician Paul Daniels. Here Wizbit is casting a spell, waving his arms and speaking, while waggling his eyebrows a LOT. Towards the end of the GIF Wizbit changes colour rapidly. During most of the GIF the background is monochrome, but after the colour changing, colour seeps back into the rest of the scene.
