Don't forget that they partnered with a swiss university which provides services to Israel military and had students arrested for protesting against the genocide of Palestinians.

I read the leaked email sent to Proton staff. It reads like 'use ai or else'. The thing I don't like about this is the more a human uses AI for coding, the more deskilled they get. Eventually, the AI will add something that the human doesn't have the knowledge to recognize as an error.

My current employer has a "we'll teach AI to all the support functions to better automate backend processes" and then they made it part of the KPIs of the senior leadership of those functions, which is miles better than "use AI or else".

I understand why using AI has benefits in certain tasks, but I don't see why there has to be the threat of people losing their job - unless it maybe was a KPI for some time for process enhancement and now things are coming to a head? I dunno.
