It's cheap "labor" that pushes KPIs and looks impressive to investors. It's got the same upsides as slavery (the model most of those bastards want to go back to), without the costs being obvious, or the labor itself being able to rebel - instead, the disenfranchised and the 'little people' are the only ones left to fight, and we don't have enough money or energy to do so. Until there are riots in the streets, the AI-loving klepto-pedo-fascists win.
