Rather than facilitating labour processes, artificial intelligence and digital technologies deepen the surveillance and deskilling of workers, as well as the domination of capital.

Artificial intelligence is not a neutral innovation presented amidst the fog of technology fetishism; it is a digital instrument shaped by the profit, control, and warfare needs of monopoly capital.

The sources and increase of social wealth have been one of the most fundamental areas of interest since the birth of modern political economy. There had been debates on the source of value, surplus-value, profit or rent; on which type of work a new value can be created; issues such as which classes are economically productive.

With advancements in digitalisation and artificial intelligence, examples of full automation at the operational level are on the rise. This trend is likely to accelerate in the coming years.

The struggle against fascism is an integral part of the proletarian revolution and cannot be separated from the struggle against imperialism and monopolies.

The pandemic has revealed to such an extent that the capitalist system cannot guarantee the health of people and the working class, but that in capitalism health is a commodity that is bought and sold and must generate profit.
