"textContent": "\"Bossware\", which a company runs to snoop on and send commands to workers, is spreading to control more and more workers.\n\nBossware is oppressive, of course. On the general level, it is oppressive because it is a nonfree program. More specifically, systems that give orders to people are treating them like machines.\n\nThe article bemoans the confusion that comes from using the term \"AI\" to refer to both bossware and LLMs. That is not the only confusion\n that comes from the term \"AI\". Let's reject that term, and use the terms \"bossware\" and \"LLMs\" instead.",
