"Microsoft Collaborates with Labor Groups to Address AI Job Displacement Worries"

Microsoft has partnered with the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, a major labor group representing 60 unions and 12.5 million workers, to address concerns about artificial intelligence (AI) replacing jobs. The partnership aims to foster an open discussion on the future of AI, provide AI learning sessions and workshops for workers, and incorporate worker perspectives in the development of AI technology. This move comes as AI providers face increased scrutiny and regulatory pressure regarding the impact of AI on the workforce. Other tech giants, such as Amazon and IBM, have also taken steps to address worker concerns and upskill employees in AI.
