Philippines Tosses Migrant Workers to the AI Wolves

The Philippine government desperately wants to maintain its massive labor export machine. Bureaucrats just launched free artificial intelligence training for overseas Filipino workers. They claim these digital courses will radically improve global employability. In reality, they know AI threatens to obliterate millions of basic jobs. The state heavily relies on the extortionate remittances these desperate workers send home.

A Pathetic Band-Aid

They push a pathetic educational band-aid onto a massive economic hemorrhage. Corporations worldwide actively use AI to replace human labor and slash payrolls. Teaching a migrant worker basic computer skills will not stop the corporate slaughter. The government completely fails to create sustainable domestic jobs. They force their citizens abroad and expect them to outsmart literal supercomputers.

Technology serves the corporate elite. Track the brutal global economy at The WAU.
