AI Tool Boosts Performance of Boston Consulting Group Workers, Harvard Study Finds

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into daily work, combined with invasive corporate surveillance, raises concerns that companies could use data collected from employees to develop AI programs that replace them. By monitoring workflows and having workers interact with AI tools, companies can train AI programs to learn and eventually perform tasks previously done by humans. While some jobs may be changed rather than entirely replaced, advancements in AI could lead to job displacement and lower wages for workers. Policymakers need to address the potential destabilization of the economy and society by offering social safety net programs and effective retraining initiatives. The rapid advancement of AI technology calls for vigilance in understanding its potential impact on the job market.
