Is your boss asking you to work with AI? Watch out for these four things
Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly integrated into daily working life for many Australians, with over two-thirds of office workers having used AI in the past month. As AI is used to support decisions about hiring, individual performance, and workloads, employees need to be aware of the potential risks, including lack of transparency and hidden bias. Employees should stay alert to how AI is being used and how it may affect them, including the potential for workplace surveillance and poorly managed change.
- ▪More than two-thirds of Australian office workers have used AI in the past month, according to the EY Australian AI Workforce Blueprint.
- ▪AI tools can carry hidden bias, particularly when trained on historical data that reflects past inequities, research from the University of Melbourne has found.
- ▪The use of AI can lead to workplace surveillance, with tools tracking keystrokes, response times, or productivity scores, changing the feel of work quickly.
