Summary

What will happen if smarter, faster, less expensive bots can do your job? What will happen if you use AI to do your own job faster, better, smarter? So many questions! I queried ChatGPT: Tell me about the future of workplace law, employee rights and AI. ChatGPT response: The future of workplace law and AI taking jobs is a complex and multifaceted issue that has been the subject of much discussion and debate in recent years. Here are some possible scenarios: – More jobs will likely be automated but there will also be new opportunities in AI development, maintenance, and monitoring. – We will need new laws and regulations for employers and employees to address data privacy, liability, ethical considerations, and their respective legal rights and obligations. – If workers are displaced from jobs, they will need help to reskill / upskill and transition into new roles to thrive in an AI-driven workplace. – Widespread AI adoption may change income distribution, employment rates, and the nature of work itself. I asked ChatGPT for fictional movie and TV character quotes about “work”. ChatGPT [partial] response: – “I’m not a machine. I’m a human being.” – Factory Worker [Charlie Chaplin], Modern Times, 1936 film – “I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore!” – Howard Beale [Peter Finch], Network, 1976 film – “You’re not your job. You’re not how much money you have in the bank. You’re not the car you drive. You’re not the contents of your wallet.” – Tyler Durden [Brad Pitt], Fight Club, 1999 film We’ll ask Nance L. Schick, Lenore Horton, Doug Rowe, and Dr. Tamara Nall for their take on The Future of Workplace Law, Employee Rights and AI: Take This Job and @(#*$& It?
