It is the work shortcut that dare not speak its name. A third of people do not tell their bosses about their use of AI tools amid fears their ability will be questioned if they do.
Research for the Guardian has revealed that only 13% of UK adults openly discuss their use of AI with senior staff at work and close to half think of it as a tool to help people who are not very good at their jobs to get by.
They don’t get it at all. Firstly AI is obviously just a bubble, so we shouldn’t be investing in it anyway, but secondly even if it did work the way they’re saying it will, neither this government nor the last, have taken any steps to alleviate the upcoming issues. No talk about improved social safety nets, no guarantees about worker protections, no talk about trial schemes of UBI, they have given us nothing.
They have literally one job, to fix the absolute mess of an economy we now have and they’re not doing anything towards that goal.
