Communication Workers Union on Employees at AI labs should form unions…

Communication Workers Union

UK trade union representing postal, telecommunications, and financial-services workers.

Workers at Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) wing are preparing to negotiate with management over recognising a workplace trade union. [...] Workers are also demanding that DeepMind offer the right of moral refusal for employees to undertake certain projects and that the company creates an independent ethics oversight body.
