According to CNN, major companies like Walmart, Starbucks, Delta and Chevron have been using AI to monitor employee communications.
The news surfaced last month, the reaction online was swift.
Employees and workplace advocates worried about a loss of privacy.
Some experts say,
Watching, reading and tracking employee conversations is far from novel.
But AI might be more efficient at monitoring.
A recent study by a company called Qualtrics, found that employees are nervous, with 46% calling its use in the workplace “scary.”
It’s understandable that employees would feel monitored.
I guess,
We know surveillance socialization is progressing in china.
We, the people living in democratic country,
do not want to live under a surveillance society like China.
The AI technology has been raising some new ethical and legal challenges.
Democratic nations need to address these issues early.
