Among the various issues that the use of generative AIs has caused in the world, is the discussion regarding whether these technologies will be able to take the place of human workers on different fronts. The novelty should still take time to enter the radar of governments around the world, but a survey by the Prospect union in the United Kingdom already points out that 58% of respondents want rules to be established to protect jobs.
In this scenario, only 120 of the 1,000 respondents (12%) are once morest government regulation of these advances. The union represents skilled British workers such as scientists and engineers. Some believe that the gains from these AIs will outweigh the losses.
The union advocates that action be taken quickly by the government, before the effects can be devastating.
The survey even contemplates the use of technology to surveil workers — 71% would feel uncomfortable having their movements tracked at work and 59% would be disturbed to see the keyboard being monitored by employers while working from home.
An estimate by Goldman Sachs bank says that 300 million jobs might be automated in some way amid advances in AI – that would mean changes to a quarter of the global workforce. In this projection, administrative positions are at greater risk, followed by law, architecture and engineering.
