United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America on Ban the use of AI for mass surveillance

United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America

U.S. independent labor union representing workers across multiple industries.

We therefore call for public and worker control of Artificial Intelligence technologies, and for the end of their use for mass surveillance and as weapons of war, in order to ensure that AI tools are used for the benefit of working people and not to further enrich the capitalist class.

AI will create more jobs than it destroys

The dangers of the mass replacement of human workers with AI tools in a country where employment is necessary for access to human rights like healthcare, food, and shelter cannot be overstated.
