Notes Toward a Digital Workers’ Inquiry

23.00

First-hand accounts from the tech sector’s resurgent labor movement as artificial intelligence gains ground in every facet of our lives. As tech billionaires align with Trump, they are also launching a renewed assault on labor through artificial intelligence and alienating tactics. But for now, it still takes workers to make fortunes for the bosses, and collective action is again on the rise. The rank and file are now coming from precarious new “gig jobs” and drawing strength from a class of worker who does what computers still cannot. Previously thought to be “unorganizable,” these workers are part of a North American movement that is reaffirming faith in collective revolutionary action through new methods of organizing, new ways of association, and a new synthesis of traditional labor activities with original research. To capture this growing class consciousness, the Capacitor Collective has conducted ten illuminating interviews with platform workers and organizers whose efforts align traditional motives with new tactics in a text that shakes up the worker inquiry tradition and imagines new ways to produce knowledge with and for the movement.
