The complainants are missing the wood for the trees. The AI employee being depicted as feminine is incidental and the accusations of sexism – never mind misogyny – are a distraction from the bigger issue: this is an attack on all workers. The ad is trying to convince other capitalists that human labour (regardless of sex/gender) can be replaced with machines. Even if that’s not (yet) true, it’ll still reduce the inherent power of the working class. It’s disappointing that union officials see the problem as being primarily that of “a few men at the top” being sexist instead of having a class analysis. I’m very skeptical of the idea that having more women in the upper echelons will make things better for ordinary workers (see Margaret Thatcher, Paula Vennells, Liz Truss, etc.). |

Right. Instead she'll just tell you - when the plan price rises.
