Senior Biden administration officials have met with workers from several industries to discuss artificial intelligence in the workplace.
The June 30 White House listening session was attended by union leaders and other labor officials who expressed warnings about AI’s impact on worker health and privacy while also advocating for the benefits it could continue to bring to work efficiency and quality, the administration said Monday.
- Workers shared stories of employers who used AI to track and monitor pace of work, leading to an increase in stress and raising privacy concerns, it said.
- Labor representatives told officials they must be involved in conversations around how AI will be implemented, given its serious workplace consequences.
- The White House emphasized the need for collaboration between the government, employers, and unions to effectively implement AI.
