Questions to consider:
- Should companies be upheld to legal and ethical requirements to notify their employees that they are looking into AI-driven solutions to replace their roles? How would this work in practice?
- Are there any circumstances where it could be considered ethical to lay off a small proportion of employees within a company for the benefit of the wider organisation?
- Legislation and guidance around AI regulation such as the UK’s National AI strategy focuses on the creation of new jobs to integrate AI, rather than the protection of existing ones - what more should be done at this level and at a corporate level to support this?
- What other job roles are at risk of content creation professionals being replaced by reliance on AI chatbots? Should companies have to be transparent publicly about their use of AI?
