► From Bloomberg Law — Trump’s AI Plan Leaves Labor Groups Wanting More Tech Guardrails — AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler said at a press conference last week that labor groups like the Culinary Workers Union Local 226, an affiliate of UniteHere, had won guardrails that required casinos to give workers advanced notice before implementing new technologies. The union is “pushing companies to develop tech that centers workers, so that technology makes our jobs better and safer and not degrading and dehumanizing,” she said. Additionally, the News Guild-Communications Workers of America and The Writers Guild of America also won contract provisions in recent years, like requiring oversight over AI implementation in the workplace or advanced notice if a company wants to license work to train AI models.
