Future of Work Working Group Report
Launched in 2021, this project is aimed at observing AI at the workplace and analyzing its impact on workers. The project methodology involves recruiting and coaching students’ communities, who conduct interviews with workers in their geographical area. The FoW WG provides the students with a common questionnaire and pays them for the use cases collected. Since this project’s inception, three generations of students have been hired from different countries, and two reports on the impacts of AI on workers have been published. The project continued using the same questionnaire as previous years but, in 2023, saw some modifications in its methodology, by incorporating a new vision focused on gig workers (this year in Mexico). The complete report is available at the link below. It presents three studies, two conducted by the Students’ Communities in Japan and Mexico, and a third from Yann Ferguson, a FoW Expert, that has included the perspective of LaborIA, a French initiative on AI at work.
