Ready to enhance your union’s communication strategy? Contact us today to learn more about how we can support your needs. Institutional knowledge, particularly the kind that resides with labor unions, needs to be shared and passed on “inter-generationally” through various new gadgets, screens, and channels while respecting long-standing communications principles.

Without timely, accurate Information from their union, members are left to navigate these constantly changing communications landscapes on their own.

These communication gaps will be filled, either by your local and union or by other sources. We have seen the impact this can have.

Communications Workers’ Public Technologists can assist you with these challenges.

We ensure that your local is part of the communications solution by creating secure channels of access and communications for your members.

We recognize that these channels are constantly evolving and growing in terms of complexity, and factor for complexity in our design and implementation process.

Latest Challenges :

The recent more rapid development and deployment of “AI” as a marketable technology has driven even more concern, expressed by the very technologists who worked on and developed it for the firms that now intend to market it.

IEEE Fellow Grady Booch, chief scientist for software engineering at IBM, recently expressed [his] reservations about AI’s pitfalls.

“Generative models are unreliable narrators,” Booch says. “The problems with large-language models are many: There are legitimate concerns regarding their use of information without consent; they have demonstrable racial and sexual biases; they generate misinformation at scale; they do not understand but only offer the illusion of understanding, particularly for domains on which they are well-trained with a corpus that includes statements of understanding.”

In partnership with our clients and colleagues, we recognize we are all in this together and work accordingly.
