Gig workers are endlessly exploited. AI could make more of us share their fate

As companies integrate AI and hire fewer employees, a shift toward a ‘gig economy’ will commence In 2024, the buy-now-pay-later company Klarna announced that it would cut hundreds of customer service roles and begin using an artificial intelligence chatbot instead. The move was expected to save the company millions.
