TechUnionization is a space for tech workers to organize against corporate greed, unethical AI deployment, and the industry’s growing role in climate destruction, war, and surveillance. With mass layoffs, worker exploitation, and the rise of techno-fascism, it’s more important than ever to push for ethical workplaces, AI safety, job security, and corporate accountability. Join us in demanding a future where our labor benefits workers and society—not just the wealthy.
Get involved with CODE-CWA to help build worker power in tech.

It can suck to work in AI research. Worked in it for 6 years and quit 2 months ago to couch surf at my parents.
Your labor gets sold as a commodity, so your customer expects you to be hot shit, but to everyone in your department you're just gluing models together like a kindergarten student and they treat you like it.
Really feeling like unions are overdue. People really undervalue and underestimate what it takes to be good or even just competent at this stuff.
