SUMMARY:Plenary session two – AI at work: navigating legal and ethical fr
 ontiers in a changing world 
DESCRIPTION:AI is transforming how companies recruit\, hire\, manage perf
 ormance\, discipline and restructure their workforce – but not without l
 egal and ethical challenges. This session will explore this transformati
 on\, examining some cutting-edge workplace technologies as well as exami
 ning usage data and anecdotes from the front lines. AI may (at least arg
 uably) lead to extraordinary gains in efficiency and productivity. \n\nA
 mong the legal challenges to be examined are the privacy and data protec
 tion concerns arising from the vast quantities of data collected about e
 mployee behaviour. Likewise\, employee use of AI tools risks the loss of
  confidential or trade secret information. Retaining and collecting such
  data increases potential cybersecurity and data breach risks. Algorithm
 s may reflect the biases inherent in their underlying data\, potentially
  perpetuating inequalities related to age\, gender\, ethnicity or backgr
 ound. There are fundamental questions of transparency\, explainability a
 nd fairness when decisions are made by AI with no human input. Indeed\, 
 these issues (and others) point to the need for continued human involvem
 ent (if not management) and accountability for the recommendations gener
 ated by workplace AI tools. \n\n
