Fuck AI

The Jimmy Dore Show UNSUBSCRIBE 1.9M

Leaked audio from a Meta all-hands meeting reveals Mark Zuckerberg telling employees that the company is training AI models by having them "watch really smart people" at Meta perform tasks like coding, with the goal of dramatically improving AI capabilities—after which Meta laid off 8,000 workers via 4 a.m. emails and reassigned 7,000 more to AI-focused teams.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger note that Zuckerberg acknowledged that Meta's engineers are "significantly higher" in quality than contract workers, making them ideal training data for AI that will eventually replace them, and that Meta has committed over $100 billion to AI capital expenditures while cutting jobs.

Just hours before the layoffs, Meta donated nearly a million dollars to a pro-Becerra super PAC in California, which Jimmy calls an "investment in Zuckerberg's dystopian future." The segment concludes by noting that tech layoffs have hit 138,000 people in 2026 alone—nearly 1,000 jobs per day—at companies including Oracle, Amazon, Dell, Microsoft, PayPal, and Meta, and that the pattern proves that workers are "training their own replacements."
