#Necessary is the crucial word.The whole architecture of #workersrights rests on the fact that #capital could not do without #labor, and so labor could make demands.
The bargaining position has been eroding for decades…
But #AI represents something categorically different…It’s not relocating the work to cheaper hands. It’s making the hands #unnecessary. And once you no longer need workers, the entire basis on which working people could demand anything simply dissolves.”

Trucking in a fuel crisis: the Australian driver sacrificing his paycheck for diesel – video
By Shot, produced and edited by Sarah Smaje . Additional camera work by Sanjana Jose , Additional Production by Sanjana Jose and Sarah Bertram , Executive producers are Michael Kalenderian, Molly Glassey and Shelley Hepworth

Frank is a truck owner-driver, meaning he owns his own truck, picks up contracts wherever he happens to be in Australia and pays for his own fuel. He can spend up to two months at a time on the road, and lives by the rule-of-thumb that one third of a job's pay should go to fuel, one third should go to truck maintenance and the remaining third is his wages. &nbsp;But the war in Iran, leading to increased diesel prices, has put significant financial strain on this model. Coupled with historically slim margins in the transport industry, it's threatening to send drivers like Frank over the edge
