AI is well on its way to becoming intertwined in almost every facet of work, from recruiting job candidates to evaluating employee performance. But a new bill out of California would put some guardrails around exactly how much power artificial intelligence is allowed to have over human beings in the office.
The “No Robo Bosses” Act, also known as SB 7, written by California Assembly members Sade Elhawary and Isaac Bryan, was introduced in March and introduced by State Sen. Jerry McNerny. The bill is endorsed by organized labor including the California Federation of Labor Unions, an affiliate of the AFL-CIO.
